• Scientists Design a Computer Simulation of a Human Artery

  …The design of Virtual Artery comes from the intersection of biology, chemistry and physiology. Combining these ingredients makes the model truly valuable, but at the same time presents a rather tricky challenge. Now researchers from the University of Amsterdam and ITMO University designed a computer model that can simulate the entire workings of blood vessels. To cre…

• ITMO Develops a New Modular Platform for Robot Construction

  … of four modules: flight control, peripheral systems, power supply and communication modules. The general idea was to combine the electronic components frequently used for UAV construction in uniform modules. This way, one can connect executive mechanisms, sensors and develop programs for an already existing platform. There is also the possibility of using single mod…

• "Death and Life of Catalysts": Evgeny Pidko on Getting the ERC Grant and his Research Plans

  … at all! Classical empirical chemistry is based on searching for the working "exceptions" and using them to create new theories. This problem is common for materials chemistry, functional materials, and catalytic chemistry, as well. Still, studying these exceptions doesn’t raise the chances of success — i.e. elaborating a working technology. Thus, I want to und…

  …emicals, but with the miracle of optics. Alexandra explained the mechanics of her invention — tiny strokes are made on the surface of the caramel or chocolate, something like a diffraction grating. When white light falls on it, it disperses inside the candy in a rainbow-like pattern. Unfortunately, on caramel it lasts only for at most a day, while for chocolate, the …

  …d — it makes metaphors more complex, more "dense" by giving metabolic features to the artistic media. Those are the features of growth, reproducibility, versatility, and auto-save function. We are yet unfamiliar with such art objects. Just try to imagine a living art object that has to be not just "stored" at a museum, but "maintained" - or even be cared for? Obvious…
