Social media is filled with DIY ways to stay cool. We tried building an air conditioner off Tik Tik. Here's how it worked.

For instance, if you have a 1,000-watt air conditioner used for 8 hours a day, it will consume 8,000 watts (or 8 kilowatt-hours) of electricity per day. To calculate the cost, multiply the electricity ...

In recent years, with the in-depth study of the memristor, meminductor, and memcapacitor, the fourth basic element has been developed vigorously. The chaotic circuit including the meminductor, ...

Abstract: This paper reports on the design, analysis, and characterization of a simple gallium nitride (GaN)-based ac/dc converter for battery charging applications. The proposed converter combines ...

Biophysical modeling of neuronal networks helps to integrate and interpret rapidly growing and disparate experimental datasets at multiple scales. The NetPyNE tool (www.netpyne.org) provides both ...

Bluetooth is the simplest and most popular protocol for short range wireless communication in embedded systems. Bluetooth is not only used for transferring the data from one device to another but also ...

Abstract: Interfacing of ac electrical machine models in power system transient simulation programs is receiving increasing attention in the literature. Models based on the voltage-behind-reactance ...
