Engineering researchers at the University of Arkansas came up with a thermal energy storage system that performs as a viable alternative to other currently available methods used to store energy collected from solar panels. Use of the newly developed design could increase annual energy production while significantly decreasing production costs of concentrated solar power plants,… »

An interdisciplinary team of engineers at the University of Arkansas developed e-Nanoflex Sensor System – a wireless health-monitoring textile-based sensors that can be integrated into conventional sports bra or a vest. Since the monitored information can be sent in real time to a physician, hospital or the wearer’s smartphone, the technology enables easier monitoring of… »
