Discover how thixotropic behavior in metals supports precision shaping, improved flow control, and sustainable manufacturing—key for 3D printing, injection molding, and aerospace.

BIOCAP tiles, a 3D-printed modular system designed to support marine life and reduce wave impact along urban seawalls, will ...

Magnetic composite with stiffness control allows programmable 3D shape shifting for use in soft robots, tactile interfaces, and reconfigurable displays.

D printing skin, bone, and even working organs could change transplant medicine and medical research — but how, exactly, does ...

Quasicrystals, once considered impossible, were found in a 3D-printed aluminum alloy – and they make it stronger. This could ...

Despite escalating trade tensions and market turbulence since Trump took office in January, the economy remains in solid shape by several key measures. The unemployment rate stands at a ...

The West Japan Railway Company has built a 3D-printed train station in Japan's Arida City, replacing an old wooden station, built in 1948. According to the New York Times, the structure was assembled ...

In 2017, a team at HRL Laboratories, based in California, and UC Santa Barbara discovered a high-strength aluminum alloy that could be 3D printed. They found that adding zirconium to the aluminum ...

The quasicrystals found in this study form the corners of 20-sided shape called an icosahedron ... A traditional crystal is any solid made of atoms or molecules in repeating patterns. Table salt is a ...

Andrew Iams saw something strange while looking through his electron microscope. He was examining a sliver of a new aluminum alloy at the atomic scale, searching for the key to its strength, when he ...

One layer at a time, the laser melts the powder into a solid shape. 3D printing creates shapes that would be impossible with any other method. For example, in 2015 GE designed fuel nozzles for ...
