A Mechanical Story

Long before computers invaded our lives one of the most sought after areas for students was the engineering stream. Particularly mechanical engineering, as it provided a lot of scope in terms of growth. The world was going through an industrial revolution and everything was, well…..mechanical! And this was the in thing!

In fact, mechanical engineering is not a new stream. It existed in ancient Greece, China and India. Some of them form the basis on which present day machines are More

Graphene Future

Graphene is an allotrope of carbon - it is composed of carbon atoms buts it does not form molecules but rather a dense net, crystal structure which is extremely thin and probably the strongest structure of one element in the nature. Just like the structure of graphite, atoms are connected to each other by gravity-creating bonds, however, much stronger and only one-atom-layer thick making graphene the thinnest material in the world. Its qualities were recently developed and examined by IBM, More
