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 ...

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 ...

The development of high-performance joints for high-entropy carbides (HECs) represents a critical advancement for applications in extreme high-temperature environments, including hypersonic vehicles ...

Scientists have found a nanoparticle-inspired solution to the age-old strength issue of polymer glasses. Seasoning the ...

Ultra-high temperature ceramics (UHTCs) are a class of materials that can be used in environments that exhibit extremes in temperature, chemical reactivity, erosive attack, etc. 1 Extreme environments ...

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 ...

A team at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory has now broken with tradition. They have discovered a way to produce ...

A new way of making high-temperature superconductors that is based on metamaterials has been proposed by physicists in the US. Their plan involves combining a low-temperature superconductor with a ...

Choosing the right frame material can make or break your project. Whether you're building a bicycle, constructing automotive ...

A team at RMIT University has created a cement-free construction material using only cardboard, soil, and water. Strong ...
