    Somewhat longer explanation.. I am still completely ignorant on this level.. http://news.sciencemag.org/physics/2013/12/link-between-wormholes-and-quantum-entanglement

    Yeah I've actually been reading up on this - its linked to a previous post by Thijs on experiments NASA are carrying out with quantum teleportation.

    "...scientists in Germany have built a device that can effectively make objects invisible to sound waves. The performance of the acoustic "invisibility cloak" exceeds that of existing electromagnetic devices and could open up new ways of manipulating waves, including the development of shields against seismic waves."

    Dario, Francesco, we're waiting for your scores... are you afraid of the truth??

    hmm "Low Ranking Nerd. Definitely a nerd but low on the totem pole of nerds." , as of a score of 66

  • a strategy to create self-healing, slippery liquid-infused porous surface(s) (SLIPS) with exceptional liquid- and ice-repellency, pressure stability and enhanced optical transparency. Our approach—inspired by Nepenthes pitcher plants13—is conceptually different from the lotus effect, because we use nano/microstructured substrates to lock in place the infused lubricating fluid. We define the requirements for which the lubricant forms a stable, defect-free and inert ‘slippery’ interface.
  • ts capability to repel various simple and complex liquids (water, hydrocarbons, crude oil and blood),

    ...This slippery surface was bio-inspired by the carnivorous plant I showed you sometimes ago! I was sure it was a good idea! next time I will be quicker!!

    Shit. I am sure that there is more to do on this. Let's have a closer look.
  • LeopoldS on 22 Sep 11
     
    And a good lesson that it is important to proceed quickly when you have an idea and don't wait ...
  • pandomilla on 23 Sep 11
     
    Yes, I will see what we could do, but they really did a good job, from the biomimetic of the surface, up to the realization of the material, and the tests...

    "By extension, GCMs are not fit for the purpose of justifying political policies to fundamentally alter world social, economic and energy systems. It is this application of climate model results that fuels the vociferousness of the debate surrounding climate models."
  • LeopoldS on 01 Mar 17
     
    but you know wo these global warming policy foundation is, do you? they are the main advocacy group for climate change deniers in the UK, nothing scientific to start with; fine to post here reasonable scientific papers criticising global climate models but please not this shit
