Examining complex heat transfer processes in detail, even under extreme conditions such as those found in power plants and industrial plants – this is now possible with the COSMOS-H research facility at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) which was opened on Thursday, May 8, 2025. For the first time, scientists have an infrastructure at their disposal to investigate flow and boiling phenomena in detail, even under realistic high-pressure conditions.

POSTECH Develops World’s First Pixel-Based Local Sound OLED with Multi-Speaker Functionality on a Real Working 13-Inch Tablet sized OLED Display.

Analysis has shown a boulder weighing almost 1,200 tonnes in Tonga is one of the largest known wave-transported rocks in the world, providing new insights into the Pacific region’s history and risk of tsunamis.

A metamaterial is a composite material that exhibits unique properties due to its structure, and now researchers have used one featuring a small sawtooth pattern on its surface to move and position objects underwater without touching them directly. Adjacent speakers exert different forces on the material based on how the sound waves reflect off it, and by carefully targeting the floating or submerged metamaterial with precise sound waves, researchers can push and rotate the object attached to it.
