Super-Fast, Strong Artificial Muscles Exploiting a Strange State of Matter
March 20, 2009
Researchers at the UT Dallas Alan G. MacDiarmid NanoTech Institute
have demonstrated a fundamentally new type of artificial muscle, which
can operate at extreme temperatures where no other artificial muscle
can be used -- from below the temperature of liquid nitrogen (-196° C)
to above the melting point of iron (1538° C).
The discovery is reported in the March 20 issue of Science under the title “Giant Stroke, Superelastic Carbon Nanotube Aerogel Muscles.”
Once
actuated (or put into motion) in a certain direction, these new
artificial muscles can elongate 10 times more than natural muscles and
at rates 1,000 times higher than a natural muscle. In another
direction, when densified, they can generate thirty times the force of
a natural muscle having the same cross-sectional area. While natural
muscles can contract at about 20 percent per second, the new artificial
muscles can contract at about 30,000 percent per second.
A. An artificial muscle strip with no voltage applied.
B. The above artificial muscle strip with 5 kV applied.
C. An artificial muscle strip actuated at 1500 K using 5 kV applied voltage.
These
artificial muscles are carbon nanotube aerogel sheets made by a novel
solid-state process developed at UT Dallas. Aerogels are comprised
mostly of air. The starting material is an array of vertically aligned
carbon nanotubes manufactured by decomposing hydrocarbons. Because of
the special arrangement of these nanotube arrays, which are called
forests because they look like a bamboo forest, the carbon nanotubes
can be pulled into sheets at speeds of up two meters per second. The
sheets have such low density that an ounce would cover an acre.
When
scientists apply a voltage to the carbon nanotube aerogel sheets, the
nanotubes push away from one another, which in effect works the muscle.
These transparent sheets have strange properties that are important for
muscle operation. While having about the density of air, in one
direction, they have higher specific strength (strength/density) than a
steel plate. When stretched in another direction, they provide
rubber-like stretchability, but by a mechanism quite different than for
ordinary rubber. Because of their nanoscale and microscale structure,
they amplify a percent stretch in the nanotube orientation direction to
a 15 percent lateral contraction.
“Our discovery of methods for
producing these carbon nanotube sheets, their strange properties, and
their corresponding remarkable performance as artificial muscles is
just the beginning of a story, which will likely be taken in new
directions by researchers around the world,” said Dr. Ray H. Baughman, one of the article’s authors, who is the Robert A. Welch Professor of Chemistry
and director of the NanoTech Institute. “My guess is that this story
will have a happy ending in terms of new products that benefit
humankind.”
The ability to either permanently or reversibly
tune the nanotube sheet density by using artificial muscles to expand
it, and the ability to change the shape of the sheet will likely
provide the earliest applications of this technology. Due to their
extremely light weight and variable density, carbon nanotube aerogels
may become highly desired for use in artificial muscles and solar
cells. The conductive properties of these nanotube aerogels, along with
their ability to drastically expand their surface area, can improve
solar cells by making them more efficient at collecting energy from the
sun.
In addition, because no other artificial muscle can actuate
at such extreme low and high temperatures, applications for these
muscles might develop for use in space exploration, where a hostile
environment prohibits use of any other actuating material.

Trace the astonishing story of the Aztecs who rose from a beleaguered
band of barely over 1,000 to dominate nearly all of Mexico in just over
400 years.
When the explorer
Cortés arrived in the New World in 1519, he found the present-day
nation of Mexico dominated by the Aztecs. Skilled farmers, builders and
merchants, the Aztecs were also savage warriors who practiced human
sacrifice on a massive scale fueled by the belief that blood nourished
their gods and sustained the world.
This is the definitive
profile of one of the most fascinating civilizations of the Ancient
World where beauty was balanced by savagery, and mysticism was soaked
in blood. Leading scholars trace the rise of the Aztecs from their
island in present-day Mexico City to the pre-eminent culture of ancient
America, and reveal how the Spanish were able to bring this mighty
society to its knees in mere months! Tour the Great Temple of
Tenochtitlan in Mexico City, where ongoing excavations are unraveling
some of the enduring enigmas of the Aztecs. Director Eduardo Matos
Moctezuma provides a behind-the-scenes look at the seat of the ancient
empire and reveals astonishing new discoveries. And see how the
long-vanished civilization's influence is still felt in Mexico today.

decades, scores of doctors, government officials, journalists, and
others have extolled the benefits of psychiatric medicines for
children. GENERATION RX presents "the rest of the story" and unveils
how this era of unprecedented change in Western culture really occurred
- and what price has been paid by our society. International
award-winning filmmaker Kevin P. Miller (Let Truth Be The Bias, The
Promised Land) "delivers a jaw-dropping emotional ride," and "weaves a
terrifying tale of criminal conspiracy, the mass abandonment of medical
ethics, and the routine betrayal of an entire generation." By employing
the expertise of internationally respected professionals from the
fields of medicine, ethics, journalism, and academia, GENERATION RX
investigates collusion between drug companies and their regulatory
watchdogs at the FDA and focuses on the powerful stories of real
families who followed the advice of their doctors - and faced
devastating consequences for doing so. GENERATION RX is a film about
families who confronted horror and found nowhere to turn for help - and
how scores of children have been caught in the vortex of mind-bending
drugs at the earliest stages of their growth and development. This
powerful documentary also questions whether we have forced millions of
children onto pharmaceutical drugs for commercial rather than
scientific reasons. Ultimately, Generation RX may help parents decide
whether the perceived benefits of these medications outweigh the
serious risks to children. http://www.zshare.net/video/6446966064ccf243/ Add video to your site Copy and paste the following HTML code to your website:

generator that I will be using is? an Air-X 400 watt HAWT. Remember
that the wind turbine industry will lead individuals to believe that
efficiency is in blade design. NOT TRUE. The design intentions
of the generator will determine is electrical output efficiency + the
blade. Blades are only part of the equation.
Example: A generator can be designed for 7-22mph. So what if the blades are 100% effiecient. You will only generate in that window. What happens after that?

Stuart Hazeldine ("Exam") has apparently completed the screenplay for a film adaptation of John Christopher's classic British sci-fi
novel trilogy "The Tripods" and indicates Alex Proyas ("Knowing", "Dark
City") is aiming to produce and potentially direct according to Digital Spy.
The story follows three teens fleeing from alien conquerors dwelling in three-legged machines who enslaved humans with mind-control devices implanted in the brain.
A previous BBC TV adaptation in the 1980's gained a cult following but was cancelled after its second season, failing to bring the last of the books to the screen.
Hazeldine
indicates his script is based on the first book alone and should the
film be a success, the plan is to adapt the remaining two.... »

The corridors will become instantly dark if the power goes off (since port-holes are often more trouble than they are worth). In James Blish's SPOCK MUST DIE, shuttlecraft have "glow-pups", which are tubes filled with (imaginary) "ethon" gas excited by a built-in radioactive source. They will glow with no power for millions of years. Tritium keychain fob As with so many other things, high tech items predicted by Star Trek have come to pass. The modern version is called a "Gaseous Tritium Light Source", and is used in submarines. A tube of borosilicate glass is internally coated with a phosphor. It is filled with a trace amount of radioactive Tritium gas and sealed. It will glow for about 10 to 20 years, and is not particularly radioactive. Even if the tube breaks, the gas is too rarified to be a health hazard. They sell these things in England as glow-in-the-dark keychain fobs. Glow-pups will be in strategic places for lighting, and will also be placed to indicate hatches and sharp corners of equipment. Anywhere to help getting around in the dark.

http://pamnanet.wordpress.com/2009/08/19/timothy-patterson-his-jackson-robot/ Today MTV released the plans for the Micheal Jackson robot that is to be built in Las Vegas. Fashion designer André Van Pier, a good friend of Latoya Jackson who designed many of the Jackson’s costumes, along side with designer of the robot, Timothy Patterson and partner Micheal Luckman, had discussed with Michael Jackson the plans for the 50-foot robot that would illuminate the Nevada desert. Today, following the death of MJ, Timothy Patterson and Micheal Luckman present the plans for the Jackson Robot Hotel Complex to be built in Las Vegas. Patterson had been working with André Van Pier before his unfortunate death in August 2009. http://pamnanet.wordpress.com/2009/08/19/timothy-patterson-his-jackson-robot/
Michael Luckman, director of the New York Center for Extraterrestrial Research, has written a new book about the connection between British rock stars and creatures from outer space:
"In 1968 he went camping in Glastonbury with his then girlfriend, singer Marianne Faithful, and encountered a rare, luminous cigar-shaped mothership. . . . . The 63-year-old singer also sighted a UFO over the crowd during The Rolling Stones' infamous 1969 Altamont Concert in California.
Mick is not the only member of the band to believe in aliens. Guitarist Keith Richards has also admitted to "seeing a few".. . . .
"John Lennon was apparently given a small egg shaped metallic-looking object which he in turn gave to Uri Geller, the psychic.
"He didn't know what the purpose of it was, but he claimed he had been given it by an extraterrestrial. Interestingly, this all happened less than a year before he was assassinated." Link (via Fortean Times). So what Luckman's suggesting is, Uri Geller killed John Lennon? Or arranged for the aliens to kill him? If Lennon had given that egg to Richards instead, I'm pretty sure he would have ground it up and snorted it.

The movie is colorful, and has a wonderful light! It's pleasing to watch it, even in the balls, with all the music and movement, you don't get a headache, because it's really...smooth. The colors are alive, but no psychedelic. The soundtrack is fantastic - i loved how Sofia Coppola mixed old and modern music, and it doesn't feel awkward, The costumes are fantastic, and the fact that they filmed it all in the real Versailles, it's no wonder all seems so true. I usually don't care much about Kirsten Dunst, but she's nice here too...Coppola did managed to get a good work from an actress that is sorta uninspiring sometimes.
I agree, maybe Marie Antoinette is a bit fantasized. But as i said, this a movie you'll watch for fun, maybe for the opportunity of seeing hated Marie Antoinette in a different light. But it's not your history class. It's not her complete biography, several facts are missing, because you just cannot put one person's ENTIRE lifetime in a single movie. If you want it, read Antonia Fraser's "Marie Antoinette: The Journey", or Evelyne Lever's "Marie Antoinette: The Last Queen of France". As for the movie, enjoy it, the light, the beauty, the songs, the love, everything! This movie is simply meant to be enjoyed, and for that purpouse, i think it's just GREAT! Comment Permalink links:
