Energy systems are incredibly complex, incorporating a dizzying array of power generators, distribution technologies and end-users; analyzing how all of those variables will change in the future poses challenges for long-term planning. A new method improves the computational modeling of these systems, giving policymakers new insights into which variables have... Read more

Microrobots—tiny robots less than a millimeter in size—are useful in a variety of applications that require tasks to be completed at scales far too small for other tools, such as targeted drug-delivery or micro-manufacturing. However, the researchers and engineers designing these robots have run into some limitations when it comes... Read more

Computer-aided design (CAD) is the go-to method for designing most of today's physical products. Engineers use CAD to turn 2D sketches into 3D models that they can then test and refine before sending a final version to a production line. But the software is notoriously complicated to learn, with thousands... Read more

Hospitals do not always have the opportunity to collect data in tidy, uniform batches. A clinic may have a handful of carefully labeled images from one scanner while holding thousands of unlabeled scans from other centers, each with different settings, patient mixes and imaging artifacts. That jumble makes a hard... Read more
