This is an introduction to the new Eurocodes scheduled for publication early in 2027, which will be in use nationally by early 2028. They are the second generation of the construction design and verification codes to be used in Europe.

EU-funded researchers are using AI to help ease the flow in Europe’s cities, making urban environments both safer and greener.

With sea traffic set to rise in a warming Arctic, EU-funded researchers are helping sailors plot a safer course through sea ice and icebergs thanks to more reliable satellite-based forecasts, writes Andrew Dunne.

This robot can walk — without electronics — and with the mere addition of a cartridge of compressed gas, right off the 3D-printer. It can also be printed in one go, from one material.

A true revolution in wireless technologies is only possible through endowing the system with the next generation of AI that can think, imagine, and plan akin to humans, say Virginia Tech researchers. Doing so will allow networks to break free from traditional enablers, deliver unprecedented quality, and usher in a new phase of the AI evolution.

Engineers are exploring cost-effective retrofitting solutions that could help fortify buildings against future earthquakes.
