The University of New South Wales has secured funding for one of six new Australia-China Joint Research Centres, which aims to meet the challenges facing the minerals, metallurgy and materials industries in both countries.
Shamik Basu, a Ph.D. graduate student working under Dr. Amine Benzerga in the Department of Aerospace Engineering at Texas A&M University, won a best poster award at the ASME-IMECE 2012 International Mechanical Engineering Congress and Exposition in Houston in November.
An international team led by Xiang-Feng Zhou and Artem R. Oganov, PhD, theoretical crystallographers in the Department of Geosciences and Department of Physics and Astronomy at Stony Brook University, have established the structure of one of the most important high-energy-density materials, magnesium borohydride or Mg(BH4)2. Their findings, “First-Principles Determination of the Structure of Magnesium Borohydride,” have been published in the December 13 edition of Physical Review Letters.
The Irish Centre for Composites Research (IComp) at the University of Limerick has been granted over €1million in research funding by Enterprise Ireland’s Commercialisation Fund for 3rd Level Researchers. The grant will fund three different research projects – all connected with composite material applications.

Understanding the arrangement of atoms in a solid — one of solids' fundamental properties — is vital to advanced materials research. For decades, two camps of researchers have been working to develop methods to understand these so-called crystal structures. "Solution" methods, championed by experimental researchers, draw on data from diffraction experiments, while "prediction" methods of computational materials scientists bypass experimental data altogether.
Investment in basic research and development (R&D) is critical to deploying new material technologies. New material technologies are the key to solving many of society’s toughest challenges. But what is the best way to conduct R&D in an increasingly globalized environment?
