A new breakthrough in the journal Additive Manufacturing shows a concrete specimen that was inspired by Bouligand hierarchal architectures to develop 3D concrete printing. During drop weight impact testing, the impact performance of 3D-printed concrete specimens either with or without steel fibers was evaluated.

Scientists from the University of Texas at Austin have developed a new sodium-based battery material that is very stable, capable of recharging as rapidly as an earlier version of lithium-ion battery, and able to facilitate delivering more energy than existing battery technologies.
With help from the Advanced Photon Source, a team of scientists has discovered a new material that points the way toward more efficient artificial intelligence hardware for everything from self-driving cars to surgical robots.
A sodium-sulfur battery created by engineers at The University of Texas at Austin solves one of the biggest hurdles that has held back the technology as a commercially viable alternative to the ubiquitous lithium-ion batteries that power everything from smartphones to electric vehicles.
Though it is one of the great mysteries of science, the transformation of water into ice often escapes people's minds as it is just assumed that's what happens.
They say you can't teach an old dog new tricks, but can you do new tricks with old chemical catalysts- Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Professor John E. Moses and his team have paired a catalyst called "Barton's base" developed in the 1980s with a new family of chemical reactions.
A new algorithm has been designed to help discover previously unknown material compounds. It was developed by a team from Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU), Friedrich Schiller University Jena and Lund University in Sweden.
In a recently published research article in the Journal of Materials Science & Technology, scientists developed a high-throughput hot-isostatic-pressing-based micro synthesis method to synthesize and characterize a large number of high entropy alloys from a multielement system simultaneously.
