At the same time, some of the water molecules from the gas condense back into the liquid. The transition from one phase to the other depends on temperature and pressure. Above a critical ...

Phase-change actuation has been revived for the era of untethered, electrically driven soft robots. Our team at the University of Coimbra have developed a phase transition soft actuator designed to ...

Deposition occurs when a gas transforms directly into a solid, without going through the liquid phase. Water vapor becomes ice or frost when the air touching a solid, such as a blade of grass ...

like a liquid, to another, like a gas. "The structure of the brain at the cellular level appears to be near a phase transition," said Northwestern's Helen Ansell, the first author of a paper about ...

Scientists have discovered a way to store electrical energy in liquid fuels in what could be ... release the energy without releasing hydrogen gas. “This is basic fundamental science, but ...
