A new X-ray technique developed by Cornell engineers has revealed the cause of a long-identified flaw in sodium-ion batteries; a discovery that could prove to be a major step toward making sodium-ion as ubiquitous as lithium-ion.
A report co-authored by a Cornell researcher will help to steer the emerging field of multi-sector dynamics, shaping a strategy for the greater scientific community to better project the outcomes of human interactions with the natural world.
Three assistant professors from Cornell Engineering have been selected from more than 220 applicants to receive Office of Naval Research Young Investigator Program awards, which recognizes academic achievement and potential for significant scientific breakthrough.
A Cornell-led collaboration has discovered a new approach for making a lead-free antiferroelectric material that performs as well as its toxic relatives.
Active learning in Mechatronics (MAE 3780) gives students hands-on experience applying concepts and theory to solve real-world problems. Students learn as they collaborate to build robots for a competition at the end of the term.
New research finds decentralized electricity markets are prone to underinvestment in resilience to rare events like the severe winter storms that crippled the Texas grid a year ago.
A new Cornell study could help inform the development of offshore wind farms by providing detailed models characterizing the frequency, intensity and height of low-level jet streams over the Atlantic coast.
In the arid world of processing flour and food powders, where using water to sanitize is impossible, Cornell researchers are studying dry, superheated steam.
The challenges of 3D printing in space may be overcome thanks to modeling software that was created at Cornell and successfully tested aboard the international space station on Jan. 1.
Cornell's Office of Academic Integration has announced 15 new multi-investigator seed grants, including support for a project on climate change, pollen and asthma attacks and another to develop a microbial delivery system for a unique treatment of colorectal cancer.
