Novel ratchet with geometrically symmetric gear driven by asymmetric surface wettability
The ratchet mechanism is a fascinating energy-conversion system that converts disorderly or random motion into orderly, directed movement through a process known as spontaneous rectification....
Porous-DeepONet: A deep learning framework for efficiently solving reaction-transport equations in porous media
Porous media play a critical role in various industrial fields due to their complex pore networks and considerable specific surface areas. The transport and reaction...
Heart data unlocks sleep secrets
We know that quality sleep is as essential to survival as food and water. Yet, despite spending a third of our lives in slumber, it largely...

For some older adults with kidney failure, dialysis may not be the best option
Whether dialysis is the best option for kidney failure and, if so, when to start, may deserve more careful consideration, according to a new study....
AI model aids early detection of autism
A new machine learning model can predict autism in young children from relatively limited information. This is shown in a new study from Karolinska Institutet...
Preservation of organic carbon in the ocean floor
On geological timescales, the burial rate of sedimentary organic carbon exerts major control on the concentrations of atmospheric oxygen and carbon dioxide and thus substantially...
Herbal-based nutraceuticals in management of lifestyle diseases: Experience from Indian population
Lifestyle diseases, also known as non-communicable diseases (NCDs), have emerged as a major health burden globally, including in India. These diseases, such as obesity, diabetes,...
