Earlier this year, professor in Engineering Nishant Garg and his team developed a test that can analyze the performance of construction materials within five minutes. It’s a major improvement over the ...

Voids or pores have usually been viewed as fatal flaws that severely degrade a material's mechanical performance and should be eliminated in manufacturing. However, a research team led by Prof. Jin ...

We apply materials science to develop sustainable solutions that address critical industry needs for energy efficiency, resource conservation, and material performance. The Materials Science ...

Polymer matrix composites (PMCs) are made by reinforcing a polymer-based matrix with glass, carbon, or aramid fibers. PMCs are classified into thermosetting and thermoplastic resins based on the type ...

A new study reports the discovery of an entirely new stable, earth-abundant, high-performance material for solar absorbers -- the central part of a solar cell that turns light into electricity. While ...

A new study finds that a class of electromechanically active materials called antiferroelectrics may hold the key to overcoming performance limitations due to clamping in miniaturized ...

Produced with all-steel rotating components, the Bevel Buddy Box from Sumimoto Drive Technologies is a compact right-angle-shaft gearmotor with a bevel and helical gear mechanism, designed for hollow ...
