The nation’s freight railroads are going to be able to try relying more on technology and inspect their tracks in person less often after the federal government approved their waiver request on Friday.This post was […]

To increase driving range, electric vehicle (EV) batteries rely on high-nickel cathodes. However, this high nickel content has a critical drawback: battery performance degrades rapidly during charging and discharging. The primary cause has now been […]

Railway infrastructure could be made safer and more reliable using AI, artificial intelligence, according to research published in the International Journal of Information and Communication Technology. The research outlines a new automated, real-time fault detection […]

As disruptions to GPS services increase globally, radio signals from low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellites could become reliable navigation alternatives, a new study suggests.This post was originally published on this site.

For the first time in the U.S., a roadway has wirelessly charged an electric heavy-duty truck driving at highway speeds, demonstrating key technology that could help lower the costs of building electrified highways for all […]

Almost half of the Northern Territory’s worn-out tires end up in landfills—with the rest exported interstate for recycling—but a study led by Charles Darwin University (CDU) is repurposing the discarded rubber to build stronger, sustainable […]

Researchers at MIT have demonstrated that wedge-shaped vortex generators attached to a ship’s hull can reduce drag by up to 7.5%, which reduces overall ship emissions and fuel expenses. The paper, “Net Drag Reduction in […]

A new system for detecting unusual and potentially harmful data sharing between in-vehicle smart-tech and traffic management technology could prevent 9 out of 10 cyber attacks.This post was originally published on this site.

High-nickel batteries, which are high-energy lithium-ion batteries primarily used in electric vehicles, offer high energy density but suffer from rapid performance degradation. A research team from KAIST has, for the first time, identified the fundamental […]

High-speed rail systems are found all over the globe. Japan’s bullet train began operating in 1964. China will have 31,000 miles (50,000 kilometers) of high-speed track by the end of 2025. The fastest train in […]
