Glass-Polymer Hybrid Metamaterial Can Passively Cool Roofs and Structures

Glass-Polymer Hybrid Metamaterial Can Passively Cool Roofs and Structures

A team of engineers at the University of Colorado Boulder has developed a novel metamaterial with extraordinary properties not found in nature. The material is scalable, and has commercial applications as a kind of air conditioning system for structures. It also has the ability to cool objects, even when in direct contact with sunlight, with no consumption of energy or water.

Using Practical Pneumatic Isolators without Compromising Small Amplitude Vibration Isolation Performance

Using Practical Pneumatic Isolators without Compromising Small Amplitude Vibration Isolation Performance

Figure 1 displays a cutaway view of TMC’s Gimbal Piston™ isolator, which uses two air chambers instead of one. The chambers are connected by a small orifice. When the piston moves up and down, air is forced to pass through the orifice, generating a damping force on the payload.
