Electronic ink is one of the technologies being researched today to replace the paper-and-ink method of printing reading materials. As of the present, there are two companies developing this technology and they're E-Ink and Xerox. The main components of this technology are cavities or microcapsules, the substance or ink enclosed in this capsule and the negatively charged pigmented balls or chips inside the capsules. These three components make possible the rearrangement of microcapsules on the "paper" upon command. The digital book will contain ultra-thin plastic paper. This will be composed Read More

Sacrificial anodes are used in cathodic protection systems in order to protect the primary metallic component(s) from corrosion. A magnesium anode is a type of metal used on boats and ships in order to protect the vessel’s other metallic parts. It first protects the area’s less active metal and acts as a corrosion barrier. How Do Magnesium Anodes Work? Magnesium anodes are more active than the base metal and therefore oxidizes easier. The anode’s electrons are stripped and conducted to the base metal that becomes the system’s cathode. This cathode Read More

Anemometers are meteorological devices that measure wind velocity and pressure. They are normally found in weather stations, but are also used on ships, oil rigs, at airports, and for personal purposes. The devices derive their name from the Greek word “anemos,” which means wind. There are currently two anemometer categories: pressure and velocity. Velocity Anemometers There are currently two types of velocity anemometers, one that uses a wind vane to operate and one that does not. Of these two, the cup anemometer is more popular and consists of four cups Read More

For those advertisers that are looking to promote their product or service and for those web site publishers looking to monetize their web site’s traffic, one of the best resources available are ad networks.

An array is a collection of C or C++ data elements or objects of the same type. Individual elements of an array are referenced using one or more integer indices. A one-dimensional array is defined with a statement such as double vector[50]. This defines (and allocates space for) 50 variables of type double that are contiguously located in storage. This means that 50 different values can be stored without having to initialize 50 different variables, each one with a different identifier. Instead an array can store 50 different values of Read More

An ultrasonic humidifier is a device that uses ultrasonic sound waves to create water droplets from a built-in water reservoir. Ultrasonic humidifiers are used in many homes, businesses, and warehouses to properly humidify an area without using heat. Because ultrasonic humidifiers do not use heat, they use much less electricity (approximately 93% less) than other types of humidifiers and users do not have to wait for the water to boil. Ultrasonic humidifiers are usually portable and can be turned on and off instantly. How does an Ultrasonic Humidifier Work? Ultrasonic Read More
