Updated software improves slicing for large-format 3D printing
Drivers bombarded with phone calls, e-mails and other distractions are more likely to make mistakes. That's no big surprise, but it's been confirmed by an ORNL study in which several drivers missed turns, ran stop signs and sometimes crashed while using in-vehicle information systems and devices. Fo...
Air travel could become even safer in the future because of work being done by researchers at ORNL and the National Transportation Research Center. In one project, researchers are applying work done to make the nuclear industry safer to identifying precursors to airline accidents. By studying and co...
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) could get a beneficial jolt because of an ORNL study that has produced some startling results. Researchers found that the direction and magnitude of the flow depends upon the frequency of the forcing function. During CPR, it's not known whether the heart acts as a...
Technology developed at the Department of Energy's (DOE) Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) and other Oak Ridge facilities is making a difference among U.S. industries, recently released statistics show.
Dr. Fang Peng, a researcher with the Engineering Technology Division of the Department of Energy's (DOE) Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), recently received the First Prize Best Paper Award of the Industrial Power Converter Committee at the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers/ Ind...
Tim Myrick has been named director of the Environmental Programs office at the Department of Energy's (DOE) Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL).Myrick is responsible for the interface between ORNL and Environmental Management programs administered by Lockheed Martin Energy Systems for DOE.
Los Angeles County and the Department of Energy's (DOE) Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) are working together to solve water pollution problems caused by urban storm water.Through a five-month cooperative research and development agreement (CRADA), ORNL researchers will use their expertise in e...
What's the R-value in your walls? The answer used to be simply the R-value of your wall insulation. For standard wood frame construction, determining R-value, or resistance to heat flow, based solely on wall insulation was not too far off.
But because of the increasing use of metal frame systems ...
The Department of Energy's (DOE) Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) has signed a cooperative research and development agreement (CRADA) with American Magnetics Inc. of Oak Ridge to produce a new superconducting electric current lead for powering cryogenic systems, which operate at temperatures of...
Three researchers from the Department of Energy's (DOE) Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) have won a best paper award from the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc. (IEEE) International Symposium on Intelligence and Systems.
