A wild idea has been proposed to generate electric power from Earth’s rotation with the help of magnetic fields. A new research has presented experimental evidence confirming a previously theorized ...

For more than a century, engineers have chased new ways to turn the planet’s natural motions into usable power, from tides to ...

Professor Dallas Trinkle and colleagues have provided the first quantitative explanation for how magnetic fields slow carbon ...

Ames Laboratory scientists discovered magnetic interactions that could be the key to customizing how electrons flow through special materials. The results could impact future technological ...

A tiny diving board can extract power from the magnetic fields around mains cables, according to Penn State university. The device is a magneto-electric-coupled magneto-mechano-electric (ME MME) ...

Using highways to generate kinetic energy from cars is not a new idea, but designer Fang-Chun Tsai has put a twist on it. He proposes using the kinetic energy from speeding cars to change a magnetic ...

The electrical manipulation of magnetism and magnetic properties has been achieved across a number of different material systems. For example, applying an electric field to a ferromagnetic material ...
