Predicting the Critical Temperature of Superconductors using Regression Techniques, Feature Selection, and Selection CriteriaPhoto by American Public Power Association on UnsplashThe U.S. energy grid loses about 5% of its power due to resistive losses in its transmission lines, according to an estimate from the EIA. What if we could find a way to eliminate all of that? As it turns out, there’s a really cool class of materials called superconductors — materials that conduct electricity with 0 resistance. If there’s no…

With the aim of bringing next-gen electric vans to the streets sooner rather than later, Rivian and Mecedes-Benz have entered a new partnership to rapidly scale up their production. The collaboration is expected to bring about vehicles bearing the badges of both automakers, with streamlined manufacturing hoped to keep their sticker prices to a minimum.The new partnership is at this stage a Memorandum of Understanding marking the initial stages of a collaboration between Rivian and Mercedes-Benz Vans. Plans from here are…

The warming up of the planet and its adverse effects on the life on Earth is the bleak reality today. A recent study has now added to the worries by revealing that warmer water in the ocean is moving towards the East Antarctic ice sheets and is likely to accelerate the rise in global sea level. This, according to experts, will damage the marine life and threaten human coastal settlements. Researchers were familiar with the melting of the West Antarctic ice sheet and its contribution to the rising sea-level. However,…

After switching my career from the creator economy to Web 3 late last year, I struggled initially as I found the learning curve to be quite steep. Here are a few things I did to accelerate my growth. 1. Start an Alpha Chat With Friends. This was initially a proposal from a buddy who was also getting into Web 3 at the time. His premise was that three heads were better than one. We would meet for an hour each week and share what we all learned about the crypto space. We each picked a topic and created a slide deck with the…

Women are storming the male bastion in automotive manufacturing harder as firms like Tata Motors, MG Motor, Hero MotoCorp, and Bajaj Auto accelerate the drive for gender diversity on shop floors. Tata Motors, which currently has over 3,000 women operating on its shop floors across its six plants in India in different roles for the production of a range of vehicles from small passenger cars to heavy commercial vehicles, plans to add even more women to its factory workforce. Similarly, MG Motor India plans to achieve a…

Ola Electric CEO Bhavish Aggarwal on Tuesday said the company plans to accelerate its new ambitious projects such as electric car, cell manufacturing and the gigafactory, besides deepening focus on technology and engineering. The company is doubling down on building the future in the country, Aggarwal said while refuting reports that he is stepping away from the company's day-to-day management with CFO Arun GR getting an expanded role."Reads like I'm retiring! Not true. Arun is a great leader & he'll help me manage…

Those with uncontrolled diabetes in stage A had a 1.5-fold increased risk of developing overt heart failure, while participants in stage B had a 1.8-fold increased risk.A Johns Hopkins Medicine study demonstrates how uncontrolled diabetes can advance heart failure from early-stage to late-stageUncontrolled diabetes may significantly raise the risk of heart failure progression in older adults with early-stage, or preclinical, heart failure, according to recent research conducted by Johns Hopkins. Researchers discovered…

The research discovered that patients with type 2 diabetes had consistently and considerably worse cognitive performance when compared to healthy individuals of the same age and education level.An analysis of 20,000 people’s data from the UK Biobank reveals that diabetes accelerates the normal process of brain aging, with longer diabetes duration associated with higher neurodegenerationAccording to a study recently published in eLife, researchers have shown that type 2 diabetes patients’ natural brain aging is accelerated…

Volkswagen and Siemens announced that they raised $450 million for Electrify America to accelerate its deployment of charging infrastructure in the US. If you are “punished” by the US government by being forced to invest in electric vehicle charging infrastructure, you might as well make the best of it, double down, and make it an asset. That’s basically what is happening with Electrify America. The company was created as part of VW’s $2 billion deal with the US government to compensate for the Dieselgate scandal.…
