  • How an ancient alchemy technique is transforming modern chemistry

    Mechanochemistry involves smashing and grinding powders togetherPexels
    Imagine yourself in a chemistry lab. You are probably picturing a scene featuring a whole load of liquids – fluids bubbling in round-bottomed flasks, solutions swirling in test tubes, droplets running down condensers. It is a cliché, but one that accurately describes what these spaces have looked like for centuries the world over.
    There isn’t much frothing or bubbling going on in Tomislav Friščić’s lab, though. That’s because he and his team at the University of Birmingham, UK, are trying to do away with liquid chemistry. The tools of their trade are powerful machines like the ball mill, a grinder full of metal spheres that resembles a mini cement mixer. It may seem brutal, but this hardball approach could shake up the way chemists work, freeing them from the “mental prison”, as Friščić puts it, of having to dissolve everything.
    Chemistry creates many of the wonders of modern life, from the medicines that heal us to the screens with which we communicate. When researchers want to make these things from scratch, they often start by assuming they must dissolve their materials. But mechanochemistry, the burgeoning field Friščić is fascinated by, shows this isn’t always necessary. “Mechanochemistry gives you the intellectual freedom to think: ‘Let me just try this reaction by grinding it’,” says Friščić. “And, in many cases, it works.”

  • Donkervoort integrates Conflux 3D printed air coolers in P24 RS supercar

    Dutch supercar manufacturer Donkervoort Automobielen has teamed up with Australian thermal technology specialist Conflux Technology to develop 3D printed water-charge air coolersfor the upcoming P24 RS model, marking a milestone in the application of Formula 1-grade additive manufacturing for road-legal vehicles.
    The collaboration, detailed in the latest “Living the Drive: Engineering Chapter” from Donkervoort, centers around an ultra-lightweight, compact thermal management system developed using additive manufacturing. The new liquid-to-air WCAC units weigh just 1.4 kg each, compared to the 16 kg of traditional air-to-air systems, delivering enhanced throttle response, improved packaging, and a significant reduction in engine bay volume.
    Conflux’ custom water-charge air coolersprovide sharper throttle response, improved packaging, and reduced weight. Image via Donkervoort Automobielen.

    “We challenged ourselves to find the best way to keep intake air cold, and Conflux delivered,” said Denis Donkervoort, Managing Director at Donkervoort. “We gave Conflux our exact specifications, and they delivered a solution so effective, we could even downsize it from the original prototype.”
    Each Conflux air cooler is custom 3D printed in aluminium alloy with tailored fin geometry, density, and dimensions to fit directly between the PTC engine’s turbochargers and throttle bodies. The units are supported by a thin-wall radiator system requiring less coolant and surface area than conventional radiators.
    Michael Fuller, Founder of Conflux, added: “This is Formula 1 cooling technology, scaled for the road. Collaborations like this show how additive manufacturing can deliver high-performance solutions in limited-production automotive environments.”
    By relocating the WCACs into the engine bay and shortening the inlet tract, the system provides faster air delivery to the combustion chamber, thereby boosting engine efficiency and driver responsiveness. Combined with Van der Lee’s billet turbochargers, this thermal innovation is a core element of Donkervoort’s evolution of its lightweight PTC engine platform.

    Additive manufacturing reshapes thermal systems across high-performance sectors
    This announcement follows Conflux Technology’s broader push into international markets and automotive applications. In April 2025, the company launched a UK hub to support European customers and expand production of its 3D printed heat exchangers. Conflux is among a growing number of firms leveraging additive manufacturing to rethink thermal systems, recent research has shown that 3D printed condensers can outperform traditional designs, underscoring the performance benefits of AM-enabled cooling solutions.
    Other developments include Conflux’s partnership with Rocket Factory Augsburg to integrate 3D-printed heat exchangers into orbital rockets and its release of high-performance cartridge-style heat exchanger designed for fluid control systems in automotive and industrial environments.Subscribe to the 3D Printing Industry newsletter to keep up with the latest 3D printing news.

  • The morgue is designed with a horizontal line that aligns with the large flat roof in Argentina

    html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" ";
    The Office of the Architects of the Judicial Branch of Santa Fe has completed a morgue designed with a horizontal line that aligns with the large flat roof in Vera, Province of Santa Fe, Argentina.Under a commodatum agreement with the Provincial Government, the Judicial Morgue of the Judiciary of Santa Fe is situated on a portion of the Regional Hospital premises in the city of Vera.Named Judicial Morgue for the City of Vera, given the particular location and how the general public views this kind of architectural program, the intervention's main goal was to create a modern area that invites approach rather than rejection—or even one that people using the building's adjacent services might not notice. For this reason, the building is discreetly hidden behind reachable embankments covered with natural vegetation, leaving the viewer with only a horizontal line that is in line with the large flat roof that encloses the reception area, office spaces, the actual morgue, and the perimeter of the intermediate galleries. Rooms facing the back of the concrete embankment or adjacent plots are prioritized from the inside.Even though the main structure is surrounded by the embankments, the building was positioned to be visible in its entirety from nearly every aspect due to the lot's proportions. Its conserved native forest, which is included into the concept, produces diverse experiences when walked about at ground level, through the pedestrian entry, or via the car access road. The deliberate image of the "fifth façade"—an abstraction made up of the entire roof structure, the vertical boundary along the street, the infrastructure areas, the vehicle access road, the perimeter lines of the embankments and pedestrian access—is given special attention.Wind, shadow, rain, sun, and vegetation all become protagonists, meticulously incorporated into the architectural concept, as environmental and climatic aspects were carefully studied in the creation of this unique program. The structure is arranged around galleries, which act as areas of transition between the outside and the inside and, more importantly, as sun control systems, which help to lessen the harsh environment of the area. Among other things, a Venturi tube at the pedestrian entrance circulates air to chill the inside and splits to cool the outside walls.Administrative offices, conference rooms, identification rooms, cold storage rooms, X-ray and picture interpretation rooms, inclusive locker rooms, autopsy rooms, loading/unloading garages, pathological waste storage, and a main hall and reception area are all part of the functional plan. An infrastructure equipment cluster that houses air conditioning condensers, refrigeration units, a chiller, a hydropneumatic tank, a generator, and an external guard room are examples of supporting spaces. These are surrounded by an exposed shell of reinforced concrete walls and roof and are situated outside the huge metal roof.The courtyard, the pedestrian entrance, and the encircling galleries are notable semi-covered areas. They all have enormous circular open skylights that let in rainwater or filtered sunlight, making the room feel cozy and inviting for both professionals and guests. A semicircular bench serves as a reflective seating space beneath the skylights. Similar to how the building is visually protected from the exterior by concrete embankments covered in vegetation and purposefully placed pedestrian openings away from the hospital, the interior is similarly protected by intermediate areas that are intended to lessen the proximity and animosity of the reinforced concrete envelope to the south. This is accomplished by paving a courtyard with loose river stones of various colors, which lessens the impression on the eye and permits future plants to grow in between the stones.The building's partially covered sections face the designated vehicle access road to the north, and vertical screens act as a physical barrier in front of the urban street's protected row of native trees that border the entrance. Using metal structures, sheet metal, circular-section tubes, and a reinforced concrete planter, the physical boundary between the lot and the street was given special design consideration. This creates an expressive, organic line that opens up urban sightlines and draws attention to the main gate and institutional signage.The autopsy room and its auxiliary spaces are the heart of a morgue, thus biosafety regulations and the best use of circulation and support rooms were taken into consideration when designing the spaces. To circulate air and safeguard the working staff, the facility has specifically built climate control systems. It has a digital X-ray machine, surgical-grade lighting, specialized storage equipment, and two cutting-edge stainless steel autopsy tables made by national suppliers. Filtered natural light is let in through micro-perforated metal panels, softening the space's clinical feel. The main views are of the north inner courtyard.The building's infrastructure includes a generator for continuous power supply, self-sufficient solar power, a single absorption pit and separate outputs for pre-treating liquid waste that eventually discharges into the sewer system, and connections to municipal water and electricity. Additionally, it has video surveillance, complete climate control throughout, and intrusion and fire alarm systems. Interlocking permeable pavers and intermediate chambers were used to address drainage and paving issues caused by the lengthy access road that connected the building to the city roadway.Aluminum window frames, gypsum rock walls, oxidized metal sheets for the galleries' and semi-covered areas' ceilings, flush-joint interior ceilings, exposed reinforced concrete for the external envelope, hermetically sealed double-glazing in specific geometries for the operational spaces, and reinforced concrete partitions covered in perforated and plain metal sheets are among the materials used in the building. At the site and car entrances, the vehicle access road has unique wood elements, precast stormwater drains, and articulated paving. The structure is decorated with polished 30x30 cm granite mosaic tiles, and the kitchens and bathrooms have custom black Brazilian granite countertops. Whenever feasible, national and local suppliers were used.All things considered, this project has presented a big challenge for the professionals in our office, but its completion allows us to keep trying new things in the future. By bringing compassion and respect to a function that is usually disregarded because of its negative implications, it enables us to "reconsider our relationship with the afterlife." In the end, it is a project that offers the balance of beauty and usefulness that is the ultimate aim of architecture by articulating and integrating spaces to make them livable and noticeable.Section AASection BBEast elevationWest elevationNorth elevationSouth elevationProject factsProject name: Judicial Morgue for the City of VeraClient: Judicial Branch of the Province of Santa FeArchitectural Office: Office of the Architects of the Judicial Branch of Santa Fe /Architectin charge: Architect Adelia SebastiánTechnical Support: Architect Guillermo Goddio - Architect Ramiro SosaConstruction Company: Cocyar S.A.Construction completion year: 2024Lot area: 5,000 m2Covered area: 402 m2Semi-covered area: 980 m2Project year: 2022Location: Vera, Province of Santa Fe, ArgentinaProgram: InstitutionalAll images © Ramiro Sosa.All drawings © Office of the Architects of the Judicial Branch of Santa Fe.> via Office of the Architects of the Judicial Branch of Santa Fe

Its conserved native forest, which is included into the concept, produces diverse experiences when walked about at ground level, through the pedestrian entry, or via the car access road. The deliberate image of the "fifth façade"—an abstraction made up of the entire roof structure, the vertical boundary along the street, the infrastructure areas, the vehicle access road, the perimeter lines of the embankments and pedestrian access—is given special attention.Wind, shadow, rain, sun, and vegetation all become protagonists, meticulously incorporated into the architectural concept, as environmental and climatic aspects were carefully studied in the creation of this unique program. The structure is arranged around galleries, which act as areas of transition between the outside and the inside and, more importantly, as sun control systems, which help to lessen the harsh environment of the area. Among other things, a Venturi tube at the pedestrian entrance circulates air to chill the inside and splits to cool the outside walls.Administrative offices, conference rooms, identification rooms, cold storage rooms, X-ray and picture interpretation rooms, inclusive locker rooms, autopsy rooms, loading/unloading garages, pathological waste storage, and a main hall and reception area are all part of the functional plan. An infrastructure equipment cluster that houses air conditioning condensers, refrigeration units, a chiller, a hydropneumatic tank, a generator, and an external guard room are examples of supporting spaces. These are surrounded by an exposed shell of reinforced concrete walls and roof and are situated outside the huge metal roof.The courtyard, the pedestrian entrance, and the encircling galleries are notable semi-covered areas. They all have enormous circular open skylights that let in rainwater or filtered sunlight, making the room feel cozy and inviting for both professionals and guests. A semicircular bench serves as a reflective seating space beneath the skylights. Similar to how the building is visually protected from the exterior by concrete embankments covered in vegetation and purposefully placed pedestrian openings away from the hospital, the interior is similarly protected by intermediate areas that are intended to lessen the proximity and animosity of the reinforced concrete envelope to the south. This is accomplished by paving a courtyard with loose river stones of various colors, which lessens the impression on the eye and permits future plants to grow in between the stones.The building's partially covered sections face the designated vehicle access road to the north, and vertical screens act as a physical barrier in front of the urban street's protected row of native trees that border the entrance. Using metal structures, sheet metal, circular-section tubes, and a reinforced concrete planter, the physical boundary between the lot and the street was given special design consideration. This creates an expressive, organic line that opens up urban sightlines and draws attention to the main gate and institutional signage.The autopsy room and its auxiliary spaces are the heart of a morgue, thus biosafety regulations and the best use of circulation and support rooms were taken into consideration when designing the spaces. To circulate air and safeguard the working staff, the facility has specifically built climate control systems (power capacity and unique filters). It has a digital X-ray machine, surgical-grade lighting, specialized storage equipment, and two cutting-edge stainless steel autopsy tables made by national suppliers. Filtered natural light is let in through micro-perforated metal panels, softening the space's clinical feel. The main views are of the north inner courtyard.The building's infrastructure includes a generator for continuous power supply, self-sufficient solar power, a single absorption pit and separate outputs for pre-treating liquid waste that eventually discharges into the sewer system, and connections to municipal water and electricity. Additionally, it has video surveillance, complete climate control throughout, and intrusion and fire alarm systems. Interlocking permeable pavers and intermediate chambers were used to address drainage and paving issues caused by the lengthy access road that connected the building to the city roadway.Aluminum window frames, gypsum rock walls, oxidized metal sheets for the galleries' and semi-covered areas' ceilings, flush-joint interior ceilings, exposed reinforced concrete for the external envelope, hermetically sealed double-glazing in specific geometries for the operational spaces, and reinforced concrete partitions covered in perforated and plain metal sheets are among the materials used in the building. At the site and car entrances, the vehicle access road has unique wood elements, precast stormwater drains, and articulated paving. The structure is decorated with polished 30x30 cm granite mosaic tiles, and the kitchens and bathrooms have custom black Brazilian granite countertops. Whenever feasible, national and local suppliers were used.All things considered, this project has presented a big challenge for the professionals in our office, but its completion allows us to keep trying new things in the future. By bringing compassion and respect to a function that is usually disregarded because of its negative implications, it enables us to "reconsider our relationship with the afterlife." In the end, it is a project that offers the balance of beauty and usefulness that is the ultimate aim of architecture by articulating and integrating spaces to make them livable and noticeable.Section AASection BBEast elevationWest elevationNorth elevationSouth elevationProject factsProject name: Judicial Morgue for the City of VeraClient: Judicial Branch of the Province of Santa FeArchitectural Office: Office of the Architects of the Judicial Branch of Santa Fe / (Architect Adelia Sebastián - Architect Carreras Luis - Tech.

  • #333;">BOYAMIC 2 Rebuilds Mobile Audio with AI and Onboard Capture

    Wireless mics fail when they rely too much on perfect conditions.
    BOYAMIC 2 fixes that by making every part of the system self-contained.
    Each transmitter records on its own.
    Each receiver controls levels, backups, and signal without needing an app.
    Noise is filtered in real time.
    Recording keeps going even if the connection drops.
    Designer: BOYAMIC
    There’s no need for a separate recorder or post-edit rescue.
    The unit handles gain shifts, background interference, and voice clarity without user intervention.
    Everything shows on screen.
    Adjustments happen through physical controls.
    Files are saved directly to internal memory.
    This system is built to capture clean audio without depending on external gear.
    It records immediately, adapts instantly, and stores everything without breaking the workflow.
    Industrial Design and Physical Form
    Each transmitter is small but solid.
    It’s 40 millimeters tall with a ridged surface that helps with grip and alignment.
    The finish reduces glare and makes handling easier.
    You can clip it or use the built-in magnet.
    Placement is quick, and it stays put.
    The record button is recessed, so you won’t hit it by mistake.
    An LED shows when it’s active.
    The mic capsule stays exposed but protected, avoiding interference from hands or clothing.
    Nothing sticks out or gets in the way.
     
    The receiver is built around a screen and a knob.
    The 1.1-inch display shows battery, signal, gain, and status.
    The knob adjusts volume and selects settings.
    It works fast, without touchscreen lag.
    You can see and feel every change.
    Connections are spaced cleanly.
    One side has a USB-C port.
    The other has a 3.5 mm jack.
    A plug-in port supports USB-C or Lightning.
    The mount is fixed and locks into rigs without shifting.
    The charging case holds two transmitters and one receiver.
    Each has its own slot with magnetic contacts.
    Drop them in, close the lid, and they stay in place.
    LEDs on the case show power levels.
    There are no loose parts, exposed pins, or extra steps.
    Every shape and control supports fast setup and clear operation.
    You can press, turn, mount, and move without second-guessing.
    The design doesn’t try to be invisible; it stays readable, durable, and direct.
    Signal Processing and Audio Control
    BOYAMIC 2 uses onboard AI to separate voice from background noise.
    The system was trained on over 700,000 real-world sound samples.
    It filters traffic, crowds, wind, and mechanical hum in real time.
    Depending on the environment, you can toggle between strong and weak noise reduction.
    Both modes work directly from the transmitter or through the receiver.
    The mic uses a 6mm condenser capsule with a 48 kHz sample rate and 24-bit depth.
    The signal-to-noise ratio reaches 90 dB.
    Two low-cut filter options, at 75 Hz and 150 Hz, handle low-end rumble.
    These are effective against HVAC, engine hum, or low vibration.
    Gain is managed with automatic control.
    The system boosts quiet voices and pulls back when sound gets too loud.
    Built-in limiters stop clipping during spikes.
    A safety track records a second copy at -12 dB for backup.
    This makes it harder to lose a usable take even when volume jumps suddenly.
    Each setting is adjustable on screen.
    You don’t need a mobile app to access basic controls.
    Everything runs live and updates immediately.
    There are no delays or sync problems during capture.
    Recording and Storage
    Each transmitter records internally without needing the receiver.
    Files are saved in 32-bit float or 24-bit WAV formats.
    Internal storage is 8 GB.
    That gives you about ten hours of float audio or fifteen hours of 24-bit.
    When full, the system loops and overwrites older files.
    Recording continues even if the connection drops.
    Every session is split into timestamped chunks for fast transfer.
    You can plug the transmitter into any USB-C port and drag the files directly.
    No software is needed.
    This setup protects against signal loss, battery drops, or app crashes.
    The mic stays live, and the recording stays intact.
    Each transmitter runs for up to nine hours without noise cancellation or recording.
    With both features on, the runtime is closer to six hours.
    The receiver runs for about fifteen hours.
    The charging case holds enough power to recharge all three units twice.
    The system uses 2.4 GHz digital transmission.
    Its range can reach up to 300 meters in open areas.
    With walls or obstacles, it drops to around 60 meters.
    Latency stays at 25 milliseconds, even at long distances.
    You get reliable sync and stable audio across open ground or indoor spaces.
    Charging is handled through the included case or by direct USB-C.
    Each device takes under two hours to recharge fully.
    Compatibility and Multi-Device Support
    The system supports cameras, smartphones, and computers.
    USB-C and Lightning adapters are included.
    A 3.5 mm TRS cable connects the receiver to most cameras or mixers.
    While recording, you can charge your phone through the receiver, which is useful for long mobile shoots.
    One transmitter can send audio to up to four receivers at once, which helps with multi-angle setups or backup channels.
    The receiver also supports stereo, mono, and safety track modes.
    Based on your workflow, you choose how audio is split or merged.
    Settings can be changed from the receiver screen or through the BOYA app.
    The app adds firmware updates, custom EQ profiles, and gain presets for different camera brands.
    But the core controls don’t depend on it.The post BOYAMIC 2 Rebuilds Mobile Audio with AI and Onboard Capture first appeared on Yanko Design.
