Chinese researchers have successfully developed and mass-produced a next-generation superconducting magnet jacket, designated ...

What is Hall-Petch Strengthening? Hall-Petch strengthening is a phenomenon where decreasing the average grain size of a material leads to increased yield strength and hardness. This effect is ...

Researchers at the University of Toronto's Faculty of Applied Science & Engineering have used machine learning to design nano ...

The mechanical strength and toughness of engineering materials are often mutually exclusive, posing challenges for material design and selection. To address this, a research team from The Hong Kong ...

Strength, ductility and toughness are three very important, closely related material properties. The yield and ultimate strengths tell us how much stress a material can withstand, and are often used ...

Researchers at Delft University of Technology, led by assistant professor Richard Norte, have unveiled a remarkable new material with potential to impact the world of material science: amorphous ...

It’s very difficult to create a large piece of glass without flaws. But the researchers knew how to make very small flawless pieces. As long as glass is less than a micrometer thick, it’s almost ...
