This article discusses the usage of Minus K's negative-stiffness vibration isolators in studies of micromachine friction at St. Olaf's college.
Some of the methods commonly used to track climate change and ocean acidification have significant disadvantages despite the phenomena being subjects of study for decades. For example, scientists are at the mercy of computational models when measuring the acidity of large portions of the ocean instead of just small water samples; these models can contain their own variables and assumptions
The development of sustainable packaging for pharmaceutical products has become increasingly important over recent years. As the need to reduce the use of plastic and lessen carbon footprints across industries increases, scientists have begun innovating alternative materials to minimize the use of plastic across the entire supply chain.

This article will discuss various materials testing technology that can help optimize your facility's testing lab to improve social distancing and reduce the risks posed by shared spaces and surfaces.
The design and development of appropriate packaging for pharmaceutical products are vital to ensure the safe transportation, storage, and administration of medicines, some of which could be life-saving. Pharmaceutical packaging is mainly constructed of plastic or glass. Glass is often preferable due to its properties that allow for easy sterilization and visibility of the product it contains. Here we discuss how glass is used in pharmaceutical packaging and what benefits its use brings.
