So when you open the exhaust valve to dump expanded gas out to the environment, you lose all of that energy stored in the high-pressure exhaust gases and you create a lot of noise. —Timothy Shedd. Slowly decompressing the gases would waste less of that energy and make for a much quieter engine. Kashmerick and Timothy A.

Materials scientists at the University of Wisconsin-Madison have discovered a phenomenon—the direct conversion of mechanical energy to chemical energy—which they termed the piezoelectrochemical (PZEC) effect. H 2 and O 2 are produced by deforming a ZnO fiber or BaTiO 3 dendrite in water via oxidation-reduction reactions.
