Aero LNG example of wind-assist vessel. Provided by Union Maritime LimitedSwiss-based engine developer and marine power giant WinGD will integrate its X-EL hybrid energy management system on four 113,600 DWT (125,000 tons) wind-assisted tankers for London-based Union Maritime Limited (UML). This is the first time the energy system will be used in combination with wind-assisted propulsion, allowing for optimized use of energy generated by both the main engine and the sails.

How many times have you opened the freezer only to be met by a wall of ice so thick that it made you want to give up on the idea of ever going back to grab those leftover chicken nuggets you were so eagerly craving? It just doesn't make sense -- you spent a small fortune to get one of the 10 best chest freezers, and yet somehow you still end up battling frost like it's the peak of the ice age every time you reach for that door handle. Where does it all come from?

An international team of researchers is pushing forward with plans for a radically smaller, cheaper particle accelerator by using a powerful technique that's been decades in the making, known as the wakefield acceleration. The approach, which scientists have studied since the 1970s but is now making rapid advances, involves electrons riding a wave of plasma, an ionized gas created using either another particle beam or a laser.

Engineered in a metastable state, the material flips its response to heat, pressure, and voltage. Rost-9D/iStockScientists have discovered a groundbreaking material that expands when crushed, shrinks when heated, and could not only reset aging EV batteries but also reshape the fundamental understanding of matter itself.
