While all viruses have some means of combating the body’s immune system, scientists have been studying how the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus—the cause of the COVID-19 global pandemic—can evade the immune system in humans.
La Commission européenne a dévoilé son plan pour réduire fortement les émissions carbone d'ici à 2030. Toute l'économie serait rattrapée par la vague verte. Mais les Etats et les eurodéputés s'inquiètent de l'impact sur les ménages de certaines mesures, sur les carburants, le transport et le bâtiment.
Nearly 76 GWh of battery cell capacity was produced for the US plug-in vehicle market from 2010 to 2020, according to a recent analysis of the Li-ion battery supply chain by researchers at Argonne National Laboratory.
Researchers in the United States have demonstrated that the viral spike protein used by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) to infect host cells adopts an open conformation exposing novel epitopes that could serve as targets for therapeutic strategies to protect against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
An international group of experts led by WMG, University of Warwick working together as a part of an ISO technical committee, has published the first international (ISO) safety standard for Level 4 automated driving systems, taking them a step further towards being more widely available. One of the first applications of Level 4 autonomous vehicles is expected to be low-speed automated driving (LSAD) systems, such as pods.
TES, one of the world’s largest providers of sustainable technology lifecycle services, has agreed to a deal that secures the future of a 10,000 square meter (approx. 110,000 sq. feet) recycling facility in the Port Of Rotterdam, Europe’s largest seaport.
Batteries, as a key component of electric mobility, are not just a standard product but rather an integral component of the vehicle architecture.
In addition to continuous improvement of the current generation of lithium-ion battery systems and the further development of the cells bought on the market, research is fully underway for the next generation of battery systems. This includes work on battery management system, a complex process, as well as heat management, which is decisive for the life and performance of a battery pack.
The European Commission is expected to put forward its Fit for 55 package of climate and energy policy measures on 14 July 2021.
According to the European Steel Association (EUROFER) the Fit for 55 package is one of the most significant – and largest – groups of measures the EU has ever released in one go. It will completely revise the basis of EU climate and energy policy in an attempt to bring it into line with the EU's political ambition.
If you have been keeping a close watch out for the inevitable fall in steel prices, you’ve probably heard this phrase quite often in recent weeks: “Look what happened in lumber.”
