22+ hour, 35+ min ago   (556+ words) Researchers have unveiled a data-driven framework that uses machine learning to decipher how the parameters of metal additive manufacturing shape the microscopic grain structures that determine a component’s strength, ductility, and durability....

3+ day, 11+ hour ago   (886+ words) Look closely enough at any material, and its familiar surface resolves into a world built from atoms - structures so small that visible light cannot reveal them. Only in recent decades have scientists developed tools capable of directly imaging and measuring…...

4+ day, 2+ hour ago   (409+ words) Dr. César de la Fuente and his team are using new tools in the fight against antimicrobial resistance. “It’s amazing to think about how little we know and how much there is to discover. I try to convey that to…...

4+ day, 13+ hour ago   (628+ words) Nickel can change both its oxidation state and its atomic arrangement under the high-temperature redox conditions involved in POM. Until now, these changes have been difficult to track in detail, making it challenging to determine the true structure responsible for…...

4+ day, 16+ hour ago   (468+ words) What if nuclear fuels were more efficient? It would prevent harmful byproducts from building up during plant operations. Increased burnup rates would mean less fissile waste — only around 6%) of fuel rods actually get used — and potentially decrease the costs of…...

4+ day, 17+ hour ago   (209+ words) Drawing on input from 69 researchers, an international research team has proposed a physics-aware framework to make AI-guided hydrogen storage materials discovery more reliable Credit: Seong-Hoon Jang et al. "Reliable AI-guided discovery in this field cannot come from faster predictions alone,…...
