With demand for materials expected to surge in the coming decades, the rare earth industry must evolve to meet the needs of ...

Earth Charge. Since 1917 scientists have known that the earth’s surface is charged with negative electricity, but no one knew for sure what keeps it charged. In areas of fair weather ...

Designers therefore must find ways to address this and work towards a different future, one that is not only smart, clean and electric-powered, but more in-sync with the way that a future facing ...

But the benefits of electric don’t end with automotive. We’re on a journey to discover how, across our planet, greener, cleaner electricity is helping the world in increasingly surprising ways.

The IET Wiring Regulations is the Standard that designers and installers should follow, so that their electrical installations will be safe to put into service. This chapter illustrates the use of ...

Researchers found that electric fields inside embryos guide migrating cells. The enzyme Vsp1 helps cells sense and respond to ...

New research led by Monash University geologists suggests that electric currents generated within the earth play a role in their formation. The researchers noted that pure gold is often found in ...

As the earth wire has virtually no resistance, a large current flows. This causes the fuse to blow, preventing any further current flow. A fuse provides a built-in fail-safe to the electrical ...

A large current flows in the earth wire which causes the fuse to melt, helping to protect the user from electric shock and the appliance from overheating and starting a fire. Current only flows in ...
