KQED San Francisco’s CE Larry Wood and I were chatting about engineering experiences that rarely see the light of day. Larry knows many engineers who have been through much tougher experiences than he ...

What takes eight years and $8 billion? Building a new LaGuardia Airport, which now stands exactly where the old LaGuardia stood. What “Extreme Airport Engineering” examines is a kind of magic act, a ...

At the core of uncovering extreme events such as floods is the physics of fluids – specifically turbulent flows. Researchers leveraged a computer-vision deep learning technique and adapted it for ...

Follow the race to build a world-class airport on the site of one of America’s busiest flying hubs. In New York City, a team of elite engineers and construction workers are on a mission to build the ...

With all the attention given to low-power design and products, it's sometimes easy to forget that there's another world out there with power levels that are tens of orders of magnitude greater—and ...

Abstract: The current fundamental limits such as Shockley–Queisser, ergodic light-trapping limit, diffraction-limited imaging (Abbe diffraction limit), noise in detection, reciprocal optical systems ...
