The “Rock of Randomness”: A physical oracle for securing data off the digital grid Gideon Samid, Gary E. Wnek
The encryption of data and manufacturability can be used to define new functions that enable security embedment in product features. In the area of polymer materials applied to 3D printing, this will be an interesting demonstration which may have consequences for how polymer materials are deemed important beyond their thermo-mechanical or chemical properties. https://doi.org/10.1557/mrc.2019.8
Self-healing liquid-infused surfaces with high transparency for optical devices Meiling Zhang, Qi Liu, Jingyuan Liu, Jing Yu, Jun Wang
Glass surfaces are important for display and solid state function as well as for constant contact with an oxidizing environment. Controlling the surface anti-fouling behavior ensures high transmission and transparency. Self-cleaning behavior is a complement to enabling performance even in demanding and fouling environments. https://doi.org/10.1557/mrc.2018.241
Versatile applications of three-dimensional objects fabricated by two-photon-initiated polymerization Cheol Woo Ha, Prem Prabhakaran, Kwang-Sup Lee
High resolution 3D printing which can be achieved by two-photon polymerization will enable functionality and design complexity all the way to 100 nm resolutions suitable for devices, sensors, nanofluidics, and other applications. This review further emphasizes the potential of this method to enable new combinations of materials and printing parameters. https://doi.org/10.1557/mrc.2018.218
Implications of sustainability for the United States light-duty transportation sector Chris Gearhart
A significant fraction of a necessary reduction in carbon emissions must come from the transportation sector. Gearhart assesses the consensus of the scientific and engineering communities concerning the potential for the United States’ light-duty transportation sector to meet a goal of 80% reduction in vehicle emissions and examine what it will take to meet this target. https://doi.org/10.1557/mre.2016.8
Climate change and fossil fuel: An examination of risks for the energy industry and producer states Jim Krane
Compiling and categorizing the climate risk facing the fossil fuel industry, Krane finds the risk differs greatly among coal, oil, and natural gas, as well as between the developing and developed world. He identifies heightened risk for the coal industry and reduced risk for oil businesses, due to its lack of substitutes. https://doi.org/10.1557/mre.2017.3
Energy use by air taxis and drones for parcel delivery, is it practical? Is it sustainable? Peter Rez
Aircraft that take off and land vertically with horizontal propellers use more energy than conventional aircraft whose lift is provided by wings. Although the ratio of payload and fuel to total aircraft mass for the proposed Amazon drone is not that different from that for a Boeing 747, range and time in the air is much less. In principle, a conventional aircraft powered by photovol
