A joint team from POSTECH (Pohang University of Science and Technology) and Jeonbuk National University has shown that mechanical waves can be fully trapped inside a single solid resonator. Many researchers thought this was "theoretically impossible" in compact systems. The work was published on April 3 in Physical Review Letters and focuses on bound states in the continuum, or BIC, where waves stay trapped and do not lose energy, even though, in a continuum, there are paths for them to escape.

No, but bonus credit. I went Vax VMS, DEC Alpha DUX, Slackware, slowaris (x86 Solaris), Redhat, then LFS, Gentoo, RHEL, Solaris 9, and then eventually a little of everything else.

Correct. They are ubiquitous in US airports.

This applies to so very many human endeavors.

Okay, thank goodness. I can give you their number, maybe you should let them know they can work on my bikes.

I would take it a step further. Unless you are ready to do all your own repairs, buy from a company with a dealer network and a location near you.

edit: I hear you thinking "but for that same price I could buy two cheap Chinese import ebikes." Yes, and they will both be collecting dust inside a year unless you fix them yourself.
