Factors to look after while using a cylinder gas

ere have been many cases of gas cylinder explosions and when this happens, lives are lost and properties worth millions are destroyed. However, there are so many danger signs we need to look out for while using a Gas cylinder some of these factors are: Cooking gas cylinders must not exceed five years: most people using gas cylinders hardly remember when it was bought. It is important to keep track of the days and replace them as soon as possible. Do not buy used Gas cylinders. Watch out for the expiry dates: The steps to check the expiry date are very simple and basic. The expiry of LPG cylinder can be found on one of the metal strips that connect the body of the cylinder to top ring (handle). It is mentioned on the inner side of the strip. The strip has any of the alphabets from A to D painted on it along with a number. Decoding the expiry date is simple. The alphabet represents the month it expires while the number indi...

Snake Robots: Can You Watch This Without Squirming?

WRITTEN BY LIESL ULRICH-VERDERBER Are you afraid of snakes ? What about robots ? What about snake robots? Now here’s one of those new innovations in robotics that’s solving problems by combining two things that don’t quite seem to go together at first thought. Today Ever Widening Circles will take you on a little journey of possibility when it comes to pure ingenuity. Source: Nico Zevallos and Chaohui Gong Did you ever stop to ask yourself why most of us envision the human form when we think of the word “Robot?” What if the real potential of robotics lies with thinking outside that box? Here’s your introduction to snake robotics! Having the flexibility and movements of a slithering reptile allows these robots to squeeze into spaces that their human-form, mechanical cousins, and we humans, haven’t been able to explore. They can do so much more! We will be able to identify structural problems in hidde...

Fire Ants: The Material of the Future

WRITTEN BY LIESL ULRICH-VERDERBER What can a creature with a brain smaller than a pinhead, have to teach us about the nature of physics, robotics and the future of advanced technology? For the fire ant, what it may lack in size, it makes up for in millions of years of evolutionary genius. Over the winding road to the modern fire ant, it has made more than a few adaptations that are, to say the least, incredible. Source: Wikimedia So, what do I mean when I say that a fire ant can be incredible? Well, let’s start with this: Did you know that a colony of fire ants can be considered a material? Better yet, a material that can be a liquid or a solid? A group of remarkable scientists at the Georgia Institute of Technology’s Biolocomotion Lab has done just about anything you can do to a colony of fire ants, to test their remarkable capabilities. For example, coating them in gold, submerging them in water, and t...
