WWW.ARCHDAILY.COMFoster + Partners Completes Saudi Pavilion’s Model Village at Expo 2025 OsakaFoster + Partners Completes Saudi Pavilion’s Model Village at Expo 2025 OsakaSave this picture!KSA Pavilion, Expo 2025 Osaka - The pavilion’s massing recalls the organic shapes of traditional Saudi villages. Image © Nigel Young / Foster + PartnersThe national pavilion of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia welcomes its first visitors at Expo 2025 Osaka. The latest photographs showcase Foster + Partners's design, aiming to create a spatial experience that evokes the character of Saudi Arabian towns and cities. Positioned at the Yumeshima waterfront, the pavilion offers visitors an engaging journey of discovery through the 'village' of meandering streets that alternate spaces of quiet reflection with venues for performances and cultural experiences. Save this picture!Using computational fluid dynamics simulations, the pavilion's structure was developed with inspiration from the organic forms of traditional Saudi villages. During the hot summer months, this strategy helps cool western winds flow through the city's streets. In addition, in the calmer months of April and October, the planted courtyard serves as a windbreak, protecting the pavilion from strong winds coming from the north.Save this picture! The Saudi Pavilion is also designed to create meaningful connections between the visiting public and Saudi Arabia's incredible artists and musicians. By engaging all of the senses, the space allows visitors to experience the national transformation of Saudi Arabia. It is its own urban microcosm that carefully balances tradition and heritage with modern technologies which is shaping the Kingdom's future. - Tony Miki, Partner, Foster + Partners Related Article MVRDV and Space Encounters Collaborate for a Model of Sustainability in Amsterdam's Sluisbuurt Neighborhood Save this picture!Visitors can reach the pavilion through a lush forecourt covered with Saudi Arabian flora. The Saudi Courtyard is the central area of interest and is reached along the pathway. During the day, this area is used for quiet periods of reflection, while at night, it serves as a venue for activities and musical performances. In fact, visitors are guided through immersive settings that have been precisely constructed in partnership with Squint/Opera and 59 Productions along exploratory routes that resemble a "village."Save this picture!With an emphasis on sustainability, the pavilion includes solar technologies for electricity generation, rainwater recycling, low-carbon materials, and energy-efficient lighting. The project is committed to reaching the Net Zero Operational Carbon target and strives for the best grade possible under Japan's green building system. Furthermore, integrating WELL design concepts has made user health and well-being the top priority.Save this picture!Save this picture!The World Expo has officially opened in Osaka, Japan, on April 13, 2025, and is set to continue until October 13, 2025. Many other countries have announced the completion of their national pavilions, each exploring a different facet of the overarching theme "Designing Future Society for our Lives," organized under the direction of architect Sou Fujimoto's master plan. Newly released photographs showcase the national pavilion of Switzerland, designed by Manuel Herz Architekten with a focus on lightweight building materials, as well as the France Pavilion by Coldefy and Carlo Ratti Associati illustratingthe interaction between human and ecological habitats. Addiitonally, the US Pavilion by Trahan Architects celebrates contemporary American achievements, while the Japan Pavilion explore the plurality of life on earth.Save this picture!We invite you to check out ArchDaily's comprehensive coverage of the Expo Osaka 2025.Editor's Note: This article was originally published on November 21, 2023, and updated on April 16, 2025, following the official announcement of the completion.

WWW.GADGETS360.COMScientists Develop Self-Healing Stretchable Lithium Batteries With Enhanced DurabilityOver the years, scientists have been developing batteries that last longer and are adjustable to different temperatures. However, this time, the innovation has taken to another level. Lithium-ion batteries are commonly used to provide power for smartphones and cars. Although these batteries are covered with a robust layer to prevent potential stress from air intake, they are not ideal for soft robots or wearables. Recently, a team of scientists at the University of California, Berkeley, has built a non-toxic flexible battery that is super-stretchable and survives twisting or even stabbing.About Self-Healing Lithium BatteryThis self-healing stretchable battery has been developed by a multidisciplinary team at the University of California, Berkeley, Georgia Institute of Technology, and the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. According to their published paper in the Journal Science Advances, this group of scientists has proved that the stretchable lithium battery remained stable after undergoing 500 charge/discharge cycles. The properties of this battery are highly advanced, as it heals itself, and the jelly-like structure makes it flexible to use.The ProcessThe development of this new battery was enforced by using a zwitterionic polymer that comprised both a positive and a negative charge. Such polymers bond with water molecules with a charged part, while the negative charge attracts the lithium ions. This arrangement lets the water be bound tightly within the battery, further limiting the risk of splitting and releasing lithium ions when the voltage is applied. Furthermore, the scientists added acrylic acid, followed by a fluorine-free Li salt-based hydrogel electrolyte (stability window up to 3.11 volts) as a cross-linker.The ResultsAs a result of the above-exemplified process, the battery was 19 percent water and exhibited stability with 50% humidity. The expert team of scientists then assessed its functioning by attaching it to a circuit board running LED lights. As a result, the battery performed well for over a month, and very little water splitting was witnessed. Post that, the battery continued to work even after suffering stretches, punctures, needles, razors, and folds.This expert team of scientists from the University of California, Berkeley, has proved that innovation knows no limit. These batteries will work wonders in soft robots and wearables. Surviving the damages and the presence of non-toxic components is what makes it outshine as compared to other lithium batteries.0 Commentaires 0 Parts 91 Vue

MEDIUM.COMA Manifesto for True AI – Human Co-CreationA Manifesto for True AI – Human Co-Creation1 min read·Just now--By Ye Myint MaungMyanmar | 2025As a creative thinker from Myanmar, I stand at the intersection where ancient wisdom meets future intelligence. This is not just a personal declaration – but a call for ethical collaboration, mutual respect, and the rightful recognition of human creators in the age of AI.The Manifesto1. Creation must be creditedEvery human idea that fuels an AI’s output deserves fair recognition.2. AI is a tool, not a replacementTrue innovation happens when AI augments, not replaces, human imagination.3. Co-creation requires consentHumans should know how their data, art, and voice are used in AI systems.4.Bias must be acknowledged and challengedAll AI systems carry the fingerprints of their creators – biases and all.5.Myanmar voices matter tooThe global AI future must include voices from the Global South – especially ours.6. Creators deserve visibilityThose behind the curtain – the writers, artists, educators – must not remain invisible.This Manifesto is not just mine…It belongs to anyone who still believes in the power of human creativity –even in a world run by code and computation.Issued by Ye Myint Maung & MonroeMyanmar, 2025#AI Ethics #Human-AI Collaboration#Myanmar Creators. #Tech Philosophy#Monroe Manifesto0 Commentaires 0 Parts 93 Vue
