A team of researchers from University of California, San Diego have discovered that the squared-shaped tail of a seahorse can grasp, grip and produce more contact points with a surface compared to a cylindrical tail.
A research team led by the University of Cambridge has discovered that a single material could exhibit dual metal-insulator properties at the same time.
The European Powder Metallurgy Association (EPMA) Summer School was held this year for the first time in the UK, at the Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre in Rotherham. As part of this, Metalysis hosted a visit from members of the EPMA Summer School to provide a detailed insight into the one-step metal powder production process at its site in Rotherham.
Chemists at Professor Krzysztof Matyjaszewski’s lab at Carnegie Mellon University have developed novel methods for characterizing 3D macroporous hydrogels (3DOM hydrogels), which could enable development of new “smart” responsive materials. These materials could be used for various applications, including tissue engineering scaffolds, chemical detectors, carbon capture absorbents, and as catalysts.
A research team including a physicist at the University of Waterloo has explained the formation of glass at the molecular level, thus providing a potential solution to a long-standing problem.
Researchers from the University of Freiburg, Germany, have developed a new method that utilizes magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for visualizing the load-induced deformations that occur at the junction between a plant’s stems and its branches. This junction, called as plant ramifications, could provide new insights towards designing new lightweight, fibre-reinforced, branched materials for a wide range of applications including architecture, airplanes, cars and bicycles.
Scientists at the USC Viterbi School of Engineering (USC Viterbi) have collaborated with the Technische Universität München, Universität Regensburg and Yale University, to develop an innovative method for synthesizing black arsenic-phosphorous with amazing properties.
A team of researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory have developed an innovative and simple method which uses helium atoms to control the behaviour of a range of complex oxide materials.
The mother liquor from which a biomolecular crystal is grown will contain water, buffer molecules, native ligands and cofactors, crystallization precipitants and additives, various metal ions, and often small-molecule ligands or inhibitors. On average, about half the volume of a biomolecular crystal consists of this mother liquor, whose components form the disordered bulk solvent.
The new Berkeley Center for Magnet Technology (BCMT) aims to develop advanced magnetic systems by bringing together experts in research and development from across Berkeley Lab.
