Nano Technology in Architecture: Exploring Possibilities.

Nano-technology and nano-toxicology

Rapid developments in nano-technology are likely to confer significant benefits on mankind. But, as with perhaps all new technologies, these benefits are likely to be accompanied by risks, perhaps by new risks. Nano-toxicology is developing in parallel with nano-technology and seeks to define the hazards and risks associated with nano-materials: only when risks have been identified they can be ...

Technological systems across contexts: Designing and exploring learning possibilities in Swedish compulsory technology education

In the world we live in there are powerful broad frameworks for understanding specific objects, relationships and events. This paper focuses the learning and understanding of one such framework, namely, technological systems, which are complex systems of technical and human components that facilitate much of the experienced needs of modern society. Technological systems are constituted of trans...

Nano Technology

We present a new approach using genetic algorithms, neural networks, and nano robotics concepts applied to the problem of control design for nanoassembly automation and its application in medicine. As a practical approach to validate the proposed design, we have elaborated and simulated a virtual Environment focused on control automation for nano robotics teams that exhibit collective behavior....
