Polyphase wireless power transfer system achieves 270-kilowatt charge, s...
Oak Ridge National Laboratory researcher A. C. Buchanan III has been elected a fellow of the American Chemical Society (ACS).
Oak Ridge National Laboratory is developing a device to study how amputees can adjust to prosthetics that allow them to walk again with as much comfort as possible while avoiding overuse injuries to other limbs.
More forms of mercury can be converted to deadly methylmercury than previously thought, according to a study published Sunday in Nature Geoscience.
With Vari-k-Graphmet, a combination of highly conductive graphite foam and ductile metal powders, Oak Ridge National Laboratory has created an entirely new family of metal matrix composites that broadens the use of graphite foam. Vari-k-Graphmet offers high-strength, low-mass titanium-graphite foa...
The Mobile Gait Analysis System improves prosthesis fit and performance for soldiers who have lost a leg, helping them to maintain an active physical lifestyle. The team’s device allows a prosthetic limb to be properly fitted to patients by measuring and analyzing the motions and forces exerted wh...
By substituting lignin for highly engineered, expensive graphite to make battery electrodes, researchers have developed a process that requires fewer steps and offers better performance. Renewable Electrodes from Wood Products, or ReNEW-PRO, is a low-cost lithium-ion battery anode made inexpensive...
Witold Nazarewicz, Bobby Sumpter and Stan Wullschleger of the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory have been selected as 2013 UT-Battelle Corporate Fellows.
Companies interested in testing the latest in low-cost carbon fiber have a new opportunity to partner with the Department of Energy’s Carbon Fiber Technology Facility.
A new smoke alarm technology developed at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory can more accurately detect potential fire dangers.
Energy consumers intent on seeing lower bills could see that happen with Citizen Engagement for Energy Efficient Communities, a software developed at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. CoNNECT, a community-based computational framework, enables consumers to benchmark their consumption against that of ...
