The range of materials that concrete contains scatters normal sound waves, making clear imaging difficult to obtain.

The most commonly seen defects at birth are congenital heart defects (CHD). These anomalies arise when there is a failure of the heart or its major blood vessels to form properly during embryonic ...

When you “snap” a photo with a point-and-shoot camera or a cell phone, you hope to obtain a blemish-free image. The makers of CMOS image sensors used in these and other electronic products have a ...

It's a read that's not safe for the squeamish: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA)’s Defect Levels Handbook vividly details the imperfections that the agency allows in the foods we eat. Altogether, ...

Women with pregestational diabetes are three to four times more likely to have a child with one or multiple birth defects compared with mothers with no diabetes, according to study results published ...

Scientists used Lorentz transmission electron microscopy (LTEM) to visualize topological defects. They were able to do so by passing electrons and observing their deflections through a thin magnetic ...

The size and performance advantages of FinFETs are leading to a general industry adoption of these 3D transistors at the more advanced technology nodes. These complex transistors, however, exacerbate ...
