Bucknell University Professor Katelyn Allers, physics & astronomy, is publishing the first measurement of atmospheric wind speed outside the solar system using a new technique she developed. Her study ...
Drones and similar small unmanned aerial vehicles (sUAVs) have seen a massive surge in popularity over the past few years owing to their innovative applications, such as crop monitoring, search and ...
Using a combination of the Very Large Array (VLA)— a cluster of 28 radio telescopes located in New Mexico — and NASA’s Spitzer space telescope, astronomers have made the first measurement of wind ...
Wind chill sounds pretty self explanatory. If it’s windy, it feels cooler — but, the concept isn’t as simple as you might think. First, let’s start with the history. The idea of wind chill, and the ...
Tuesday's wind chill values ranged from the single digits to below zero. (Copyright 2024 by KSAT - All rights reserved.) Currently, we find ourselves dealing with ...
The safety of wind turbines can be severely compromised by resonance between wind turbine towers and rotors. Traditional methods for measuring the natural frequency of wind turbine towers require ...
Atmospheric scientists have developed an algorithm that uses data from water vapor movements to measure wind. This could help predict extreme events like hurricanes. Wind speed and direction provide ...
Michigan Aerospace Corp. (MAC), a provider of optical products and advanced engineering services, reports that it has successfully completed a vibration test of a tunable LIDAR (light detection and ...
