The ‘new’ material could be of great use in fields in which extreme temperature changes are common or precise measuring ...

Skoltech and MIPT researchers have sped up the search for high-performance metal alloys for the aerospace industry, ...

Identifying alloy properties can be expensive and time-consuming. Experiments involving alloys often require a number of resources. Calculating alloys can also become extremely complicated ...

Just as a snowflake's intricate structure vanishes when it melts and transforms when it refreezes, the microstructure of ...

Most metals expand when their temperature rises. The Eiffel Tower, for example, is about 10 to 15 centimeters taller in summer than in winter due to its thermal expansion. However, this effect is ...

Cornell University researchers have uncovered a way to control these transformations in metal solidification by adjusting alloy composition, ultimately leading to stronger, more reliable metal parts.

Alloy bullets have gained much of their popularity because of the idea that they will not wear out the barrel as rapidly as ...

The researchers tested their new approach on two groups of metals: five high-melting-point metals (vanadium, molybdenum, ...

Some of the materials in the family of Heusler alloys were predicted to have a half-metallic nature, but their half-metallic electronic structure varies with their composition ratio and atomic ...
