Researchers recently discovered that the strength of the magnetic field required to elicit a particular quantum mechanical process corresponds to the temperature of the material. Based on this finding ...

Bacterial Cellulose Supermaterials Break Strength Barriers Scientists at Rice University and University of Houston have ...

Incorporating machine learning, MIT engineers have developed a way to 3D print aluminum alloys that are five times stronger.

On the contrary, carrying out a hardness test enables strength-based comparisons of materials using simplified sample shapes such as rods or flats. The UMT has different types of indenters including a ...

MIT engineers have developed a printable aluminum alloy that can withstand high temperatures and is five times stronger than ...

Creeps are characterized as time-dependent permanent deformations that occur under constant stress at elevated temperatures. The material composition determines the onset of creep. For example, steel ...

Modern industry requires multi-dimensional performance design of protective structural materials. In nature, many organisms ...

A study conducted at Columbia University has revealed that even when stitched together from much smaller fragments, large sheets of graphene still retain much of their mechanical properties. The ...

The charging connector (including plugs and sockets), as the core interface for current transmission, must possess excellent ...
