A new technology inspired by NASA research uses sound instead of water or foam to put out fires could change how firefighters battle flames. Sonic Fire Tech demonstrated the system Tuesday in Concord ...

Researchers have used sound waves to turn stem cells into bone cells, in a tissue engineering advance that could one day help patients regrow bone lost to cancer or degenerative disease. The ...

Engineers have long searched for cleaner ways to fight fires without relying on water or chemicals. In 2015, two George Mason University students, Viet Tran and Seth Robertson, developed a portable ...

Prefer Newsweek on Google to see more of our trusted coverage when you search. Scientists managed to significantly boost the production of green hydrogen using sound waves in a clean energy ...

New research suggests that eerie sensations often attributed to hauntings may be caused by infrasound—low-frequency sound waves below human hearing. Experiments found that exposure to around 18 Hz ...

Sound waves have been part of science and medicine for decades, but the technologies have always relied on low frequencies. Now researchers have revealed how high frequency sound waves could ...

Ultra high-frequency sound transmits energy through flesh and other materials that block light or heat used in conventional 3D printing. Stephen Shankland worked at CNET from 1998 to 2024 and wrote ...

Breaking waves generate low-frequency sound in the ocean in addition to other natural and man-made sources. In the layer of water at the depth of minimal speed of sound (deep sound channel), ...
