As the world races to enhance the efficiency of cars and other vehicles so as to control greenhouse gas emissions and enhance the range of electric vehicles, the hunt is ongoing for lighter materials that are sufficiently robust to be employed in the car’s body.
Artificial intelligence advances how scientists explore materials. Researchers from Ames Laboratory and Texas A&M University trained a machine-learning (ML) model to assess the stability of rare-earth compounds.
For decades researchers and technologists have regarded batteries and capacitors as two distinct energy storage devices — batteries, known for storing more energy but releasing it slowly; capacitors, for quickly discharging it in smaller spurts.
A Northwestern University-led research team has developed a simple and versatile solution: Introduce an electron with a jolt of electricity, and resistance between the two is reduced and a bond formed.
Engineers at the University of Cincinnati have developed a promising electrochemical system to convert emissions from chemical and power plants into useful products while addressing climate change.
For over 50 years, Welding Alloys has been at the cutting edge of research and innovation in specialised welding products and engineered wear solutions.
Inspired by the bacteria-killing wings of insects like cicadas, scientists have developed a natural antibacterial texture for use on food packaging to improve shelf life and reduce waste.
