At 12:33pm on April 28th, the Iberian peninsula went dark. Within seconds, a few local energy outages cascaded into a regional blackout. The loss of just 2.2 gigawatts (about two nuclear plants) ...

With the shift toward renewable-dominant power systems, concerns about small-signal stability have intensified, driven by reduced inertia and the loss of inherent damping formerly provided by ...

New research from UBC Okanagan mathematically demonstrates that the universe cannot be simulated. Using Gödel’s incompleteness theorem, scientists found that reality requires “non-algorithmic ...

The idea that we’re living inside a simulation, as popularized by “The Matrix” franchise, has piqued the interest of scientists for decades. In 2003, philosopher Nick Bostrom proposed in a highly ...

The true nature of our universe as been an open debate for millennia, and recently, scientists and philosophers have pondered whether it might be a hyper-realistic simulation perpetuated by some super ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Despite how it may feel some days, we probably aren’t stuck in a ...

If such a simulation were possible, the simulated universe could itself give rise to life, which in turn might create its own simulation. This recursive possibility makes it seem highly unlikely that ...

This recently completed tiny house combines off-grid functionality with a well-designed and surprisingly luxurious interior that lets its owners live and work wherever they want. The unnamed tiny ...

Grid-forming inverters can operate independently, maintaining voltage and frequency during grid outages, unlike grid-following inverters that rely on external signals. Adoption of GFM technology ...
