I Made a Gun that Punches through ANYTHING

Can gallium destroy an engine? How long would it take? What destroys an engine faster, beans or gallium? Even now, in the age of technological enlightenment these are questions that remain unsolved by modern science.

Control valves regulate flow, pressure, temperature and liquid levels. These regulations are maintained through a process of partially or fully opening and closing valves. These control valves receive signals from controllers...

The earliest versions of The Steam Engine date back to Roman Egypt. But It wasn’t until advancements in the design by inventors like Thomas Savery and Thomas Newcomen, that the power of steam transformed the world. Based on an earlier...

Compression of gases and vapors in the process industry are necessary in many applications. Compression is used as a means to decrease the volume of a gas or vapor while increasing the amount of pressure. Compressors operate similar to...

Pumps; they come in all different types, sizes, and functionalities. If you are going into industrial work at some point you are going to be working with pumps and you need to understand how these pumps work and differ from each...

Cars have come a long way from the steam engines of the past to the fossil fuel and electric machines common today. Learn how these automobiles have evolved and what powers them today.

The video is a lecture on how work can be done on a gas to increase its pressure. The lecturer begins by explaining how the temperature and volume of a gas affects its pressure. The video then goes on to explain how work can be done on a...

A three-dimensional, digital representation of an object created with a computer and then sent to an inkjet printer that builds the prototype in three-dimensions. This innovative tool is giving scientists, engineers and backyard...

This is one of the many versions of "If You're Happy & You Know It" in German. The lyrics are below along with some links to where you can find other versions of the song.

What's inside a starter motor, in this video we take a look inside a starter motor to see how it works and the main parts for automotive engineering.

Do you know how a starter motor works? In this video, we're going to take a look at the basics of starter motors and see how they work.

Pyston, created originally at Dropbox, aims to speed up execution of Python programs with various acceleration techniques like just-in-time compilation ("JITting"). In this video we demonstrate Pyston's speedups -- still modest, but...

Following the completion of critical mirror alignment steps, the James Webb Space Telescope team has great confidence that the observatory’s optical performance will meet or exceed the science goals it was built to achieve. On March 11,...

The earliest versions of The Steam Engine date back to Roman Egypt. But It wasn’t until advancements in the design by inventors like Thomas Savery and Thomas Newcomen, that the power of steam transformed the world. Based on an earlier...

The video discusses the relationship between the pressure and volume of a gas at constant temperature. The video also introduces the equation PV = constant, which relates pressure and volume for a fixed mass of gas held at constant...

This video is a lecture presentation that explains the concept of gas pressure. The presentation then explores how temperature and volume affect gas pressure. The presentation concludes by discussing the balance of forces and pressure...

Solenoid basics explained. In this video we take a look at the electromagnetic field of a solenoid coil. Learning how magnets work and how they can be used to control solenoids and solenoid valves. Working principles and working animations.

Friction always creates heat. Brakes and tires depend on friction to work, but more friction isn't always better. In the engine, friction is never good and engine builders use everything from oil to high-tech coatings to get a little...

Hydraulics might sound complicated but all they are, is another force multiplier. They utilise the fact that liquids are virtually incompressible, which means when you compress them, the pressure you apply to one point of the liquid is...

This video lecture focuses on how the volume of a gas affects its pressure. It first explains how temperature affects pressure and then delves into the example of how a fixed mass and temperature of gas stored in a piston react to...

Upon viewing the Forces in Fluids video series, students will be able to do the following: Define fluids as substances that can easily flow and readily change shape. Explain that fluids flow because particles can easily move past each...

Sometimes the biggest problems can be solved by looking at the tiniest details. NION Co. president Ondrej Krivanek and Rutgers University scientist Philip Batson are part of a collaboration to build one of the world's most advanced...
