The list of the Top 50 Women in Engineering 2018 (WE50) will be published this Sunday (24th June 2018) as part of the weekend of celebrations for International Women in Engineering Day (INWED). This year’s theme highlights the achievements of women who have been Returners and Transferrers into the field.

Computer simulations of microscopic, protein-coated beads that block bacteria from binding to host cells suggest that the microbeads could help reduce or eliminate bacterial infections in burn wounds. Dr Paul Roberts from the University of Birmingham’s School of Mathematics, UK., and colleagues present these new findings, funded by the BBSRC, in the journal PLOS Computational Biology.

When it comes down to building renovations, the FDB 2 multiway modular RCD/RCBO panel, is the only thing you need to worry about as it is suitable for upgrade and maintenance projects in the commercial/industrial sphere.This modular range of general purpose earth leakage protection units comes complete with overload and short circuit protection. (It is also approved by Network Rail for use in DC Electrified areas).

It is essential for engineers and architects to demonstrate how a project will look to a client before building gets underway. As well as being an intrinsic part of the design process, technology makes it possible to produce photo-realistic images and to-scale models so that the professionals can articulate their visions and the reasons behind them.Showing a client how a space might sound is less common, and often deprioritised in the process. Ho...

ON Semiconductor hasannounced their participation in the startup ecosystem ofSilicon Valley-basedPlug and Play, the global innovation platform.They join Plug and Play’s Mobility and IoT platforms, further showcasing their commitment towards advancing the widespread deployment of solutions in the automotive and industrial spheres.

Global wireless and positioning modules company,u-blox, has announced that its SARA-N2NB-IoT module series is entering initial production. In addition to being certified for use in Europe, Asia and Australia, the module has received ATEX certification for deployment in hazardous environments, expanding the scope of the IoT to new industrial applications.

An international team of researchers from NASA, Environmental and Radiation Health Sciences Directorate at Health Canada, Oxford University, Canadian Nuclear Laboratories, Belgian Nuclear Research Centre, Insilico Medicine, the Biogerontology Research Center, Boston University, Johns Hopkins University, Ghent University, among others, have published a roadmap toward enhancing human radioresistance for space exploration and colonisation in the jou...

New forms of work and collaboration come from digitalisation, while at the same time it confronts the industry with a new set of challenges.As the need for a technically qualified workforce goes up, the number of qualified workers continues to go down. The HANNOVER MESSE supporting program titled ‘Career 4.0’ explores the different requirements and opportunities in this sphere.

Acoustic tractor beams use the power of sound to hold particles in mid-air, and unlike magnetic levitation, they can grab most solids, liquids or even small insects and food. For the first time University of Bristol engineers have shown that it is possible to stably trap objects larger than the wavelength of sound in an acoustic tractor beam. This discovery opens the door to the manipulation of drug capsules or micro-surgical implements within th...

Following the manufacture by wet chemical processes, Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients are precipitated or crystallisaed out from the solvent. The subsequent steps are usually isolation and drying.Hygienic drying in a vacuum requires a lot of attributes. The innovative spherical dryer design provides the highest performance according process control and latest GMP standards. De Dietrich Process Systems is currently delivering several units in tha...
