Researchers have developed permanent magnets based on nanoparticles. The innovative materials promise to help drive more efficient engines for wind energy and other renewable energy applications.

Magnets are key to many applications in the generation and control of energy. However, a new generation of permanent magnets is needed to fuel developments in wind turbine technologies, electric cars and space technologies.

Cutting-edge hardware and software have helped design of new compact equipment to measure particle numbers from exhaust fumes on-site.

The need to measure particles in exhaust fumes from cars and engines efficiently is crucial for understanding pollution and creating measures to combat its impact on the environment. Although on-site equipment does exist to measure pollution, a more accurate, compact and real-time solution is needed to measure actual particles, regardless of fluctuating exhaust pressure.
