There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Traffic and wind cause low frequency vibrations to ripple through bridge building materials such as steel and concrete, but the energy normally travels away from its source before dissipating. Academics at Heriot-Watt University, alongside colleagues from Georgia State University and the Georgia Institute of Technology in the U.S., intend to capture and recycle this untapped source by using the principles of physics. Rachel Kuske, professor and chair fo the School of Mathematics, is one of the principal investigators for the project, which is also featured in Scottish Construction Now, FutureScot, The Herald Scotland, Digit, and Bridge Design and Engineering.
