New 3D-Printed Workflow Enhances Valve Sizing Accuracy for Aortic Valve Replacement Procedures

Over one in eight people aged 75 and older in the US develop moderate-to-severe blockage of the aortic valve in their hearts, commonly caused by calcified deposits that accumulate on the valve’s leaflets and hinder them from fully opening and closing.

Numerical Model System Helps Study the Mechanical Properties of Amorphous Solids

The atoms in a crystalline solid generally form an ordered lattice. Such a crystalline solid reacts elastically to slight deformations: upon removing the applied strain, the macroscopic stress, in addition to the microscopic configuration of the atomic lattice, returns back to the original state.

Maohokite: Newly Discovered High-Pressure Mantle Mineral

Researchers for a long time believed that the lower mantle was made up of bridgmanite (Mg, Fe)SiO3 and magnesiowüstite (Mg, Fe)O, in which Fe2+ resides. This view was revised when experiments proved that Fe2+ simply cannot exist at the temperature and pressure of the lower mantle.

The Current State of the Global Semiconductor Market

The global semiconductor market has entered an exciting period. Demand for chip technology is both driving the industry as well as hindering it, with current chip shortages predicted to last for some time. Current trends will likely shape the future of the industry, which is set to continue to show

How are Graphene Batteries Made?

The primary distinction between graphene-based batteries and solid-state batteries lies in the composition of either electrode. Although the cathode is commonly changed, carbon allotropes can also be employed in fabricating anodes.

What Role Will The IoT Play In The Electric Vehicle Industry?
