A discovery reported in the August 5 issue of Science could speed the design of materials that approach the hardness of diamond yet remain supple enough to be worked like metal.
In a massive computer simulation invol...
When you buy an incandescent light bulb, you never know how long it will burn. Its service life is limited mainly by microscopic cracks in the tungsten filament. A simulation model for materials reveals crack formation b...
Physicists have a pretty good idea of what to expect when friction and adhesion occur in the visible world. You jam on the brakes, for instance, and your tires and the highway interact to stop your car. You glue two piec...
Whether mapping genes, probing elemental particles or monitoring global warming, more and more scientists rely on massive data vaults located at universities and institutions around the world.
Now, researchers at 10 F...
University of Chicago physicists have made careful measurements of flowing sand that can help resolve longstanding questions regarding how glasses differ from liquids at the atomic level, the scientists reported their fi...
Commercial products such as laptop computer monitors and solar-powered calculators are constructed from a light-sensitive material with a peculiar problem: When exposed to intense light, it forms defects, reducing the ef...
TRW Occupant Safety Holding GmbH, a subsidiary of TRW Automotive Holdings Corp., has announced the opening of a new engineering center in Czestochowa, Poland. TRW Automotive anticipates that the center will employ more t...
Heating specialists Kanthal, a product area within Sandvik Materials Technology, has supplied Superthal heating modules, fitted with Kanthal Super CS elements, as part of a forehearth redesign project in a major glass pl...
Understanding fire is one of the oldest challenges in chemistry. Even after 150 years of flame chemistry research, scientists are making new findings. An international research consortium, including CAS researchers, disc...
