Solving a Space Problem with Origami Principles
From spacecraft to solar panels, lack of space is a design problem. Read about how some researchers are using origami, the ancient art of Japanese paper folding, to remedy this issue.
Optimizing the Continuous Casting Process with Simulation
To optimize the steelmaking process of continuous casting, researchers at SMS Concast turned to simulation. One result? A steelmaking plant in Taiwan reduced yearly CO2 emissions by ~40,000 tons.
Understanding Traffic Congestion via Equation-Based Modeling
Boring, frustrating, extremely inconvenient: We’ve all experienced a traffic jam when trying to get from Point A to Point B. Researchers used equation-based modeling to study traffic congestion.
