Scientists grow 3D metal in gel, reporting parts up to 20x stronger
Scientists at EPFL in Switzerland have found a way to grow dense metal structures inside a simple water-based gel, producing parts that can withstand 20 times more pressure than those made with ...
Thixotropy is a lesser-known but crucial material property in modern manufacturing. Derived from the Greek words thixis (touch) and tropos (turning), it refers to materials that temporarily lose ...
Explore the latest innovations in steel-part fabrication that allow engineers to design ambitious structures without ...
Metalworkers and metallurgists have long appreciated the ability to tailor the performance characteristics of steel (an alloy of iron and carbon), including their strength, hardness, ductility and ...
In 2009, the Alberta Electric System Operator (AESO) directed AltaLink L.P. and EPCOR Distribution & Transmission Inc. to prepare a facility application for a system reinforcement transmission project ...
