A supercomputer from the United States military, roadrunner, built with the original components, designed for video game machines, and able to perform the calculation of data from more 1.026×1015 calculations per second. Roadrunner this price range USD 133 million and will be used to study nuclear weapons. Machines computer is twice faster than the previous fastest supercomputer, IBM BlueGene / L, which is in the laboratory LLN (Lawrence Livermore National), California.

Super Computer roadrunner will referenced New Mexico City was built by engineers and scientists from IBM and Los Alamos National Laboratory, New Mexico. Super Computer used to solve military problems to ensure the supply of nuclear weapons will work with the national good. Roadrunner is able to simulate how nuclear weapons work in a small explosion. In addition to the military to solve problems, roadrunner can also be used to identify the problems of climate change. With high-speed, roadrunner can help scientists to test global climate accurately. Read more…

According to the researchers from the Lab of Bio-based Active Materials, Kyoto University, Natta de coco composite can be very strong with a simple processing technique. Dry sheet of Natta de coco (after water composite removed) is put in prior to the adhesive polifenol Formaldehyde with low molecular weight. After the drying process and then pressed on the hot temperature 180 C for 10 minutes so it will be a very strong composite.

Composite Natta de coco can have a very good strength because of Natta de coco have micro fibrils with a uniform fiber size of less than 10 nm, straight and formed a net  such as gossamer. This excellence makes composite Natta de coco approaching the strength of steel but with light density is much lower when compared to lightweight steel. Excellence enables composite Natta de coco to be used in various industrial applications such as automotive, electronic, and construction. In addition to excellence that is light, strong, inexpensive and easy to produce in the process, the other is superior composite is made from natural material (RENEWABLE resources) that availability is very abundant in nature.

Rapid Development of cell phone technology is realized will impact on the environment. People easily will discard the old mobile phone and replace it with the new. If there are hundreds, thousands, even millions of used mobile phones that have been damaged and accumulate in place of final disposal, it can cause pollution to land.

To reduce the impact of the pollution, the designer created a gadget phone that can be recycled. One is a mobile phone bamboo, that most of the raw materials using bio-plastic. Materials were developed from natural composite; one of them is corn material. Elements in the mobile phone such as the circuit board, the battery, ravel and the antenna can be decomposed into compost. Read more…
