    • Drexel Team In Final Stages of Preparation for the SpaceX Hyperloop Pod Competition

      September 08, 2016

      Since June, the Drexel Hyperloop team has made great strides to prove the feasibility of their pod design. At the end of last academic year, the team lost over 80 members to graduation, leaving 15 members to regroup and recruit. And they were successful, with over 60 members joining over the summer, most of whom are sophomores and pre-juniors. These students have proven themselves above and beyond over the last 2 months with a strong commitment to maintaining a higher level of efficiency and production than was expected.

    • Containing Our 'Electromagnetic Pollution'

      September 08, 2016

      If you’ve ever heard your engine rev through your radio while listening to an AM station in your car, or had your television make a buzzing sound when your cell phone is near it, then you’ve experienced electromagnetic interference. This phenomenon, caused by radio waves, can originate from anything that creates, carries or uses an electric current, including television and internet cables, and, of course cell phones and computers. A group of researchers at Drexel University and the Korea Institute of Science & Technology is working on cleaning up this electromagnetic pollution by containing the emissions with a thin coating of a nanomaterial called MXene.
