Lehigh Tribologist Studies Fundamental Origins of Friction on Complex Nanocomposite Surfaces

That's a low estimate of how much friction and wear costs the U.S. every year. In fact, studies suggest that so-called "normal wear and tear" costs industrialized countries some 2 to 6 percent of their annual gross domestic product.

Non-Invasive Test to Detect Cocaine Ingestion through a Simple Fingerprint

Researchers from the National Physical Laboratory (NPL), the University of Surrey, the Netherlands Forensic Institute, King's College London and Sheffield Hallam University have demonstrated a new, non-invasive test that can detect cocaine use through a simple fingerprint. For the first time, this new fingerprint method can determine whether cocaine has been ingested, rather than just touched.

Coupling Advanced Neutron Scattering with High-Performance Computing Could Enable Better Understanding of Protein Function

The Science
Whether inside algae converting biomass to fuels or human cells responding to radiation exposure, proteins change their shape via atomic motions to perform a specific function. Today these shape-changing processes are still difficult to measure and understand. Scientists recently determined three classes of atomic motion using neutron scattering coupled with computational simulations.
