New window insulation blocks heat, but not your view
Physicists at the University of Colorado Boulder have designed a new material for insulating windows that could improve the energy efficiency of buildings worldwide—and it works a bit like a high-tech ...
Researchers at Università Cattolica, Brescia campus, have discovered that the transition from insulating to conductive behavior in certain materials is driven by topological defects in the structure.
(Nanowerk Spotlight) Cold weather protection represents a fundamental challenge at the intersection of physics and human comfort. Heat naturally flows from warm to cold areas. Blocking this flow ...
