1+ day, 22+ hour 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....

2+ day, 9+ hour ago   (904+ words) Medicinal chemists have long chased a deceptively simple goal: build drug candidates that are less flat, more three-dimensional, and more likely to succeed in the clinic....

3+ day, 20+ hour ago   (279+ words) Scientists at the Beijing Institute of Technology in China have developed a hydrogen fuel cell design that, under standard operating conditions, delivered four times higher power than conventional systems. The South China Morning Post reports on the findings of the…...

4+ day, 8+ hour ago   (764+ words) Consider self-assembly, a common phenomenon within both the physical and biological worlds. Physical stuff routinely assembles into lifeless forms, such as crystals or amorphous rocks. But in unique circumstances, it can also self-assemble into living forms, such as bacteria, birds,…...

5+ 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…...

5+ day, 6+ hour ago   (375+ words) Corrosion is the gradual breakdown of metals through chemical or electrochemical reactions with their environment. Metal rust is the familiar red-brown product formed when iron or steel reacts with oxygen and moisture. The corrosion process can weaken structures as solid…...

5+ day, 19+ hour ago   (1102+ words) Published chemical literature has accumulated a wealth of reaction data, but this data comes from diverse sources, is unevenly distributed, and is clearly biased towards highly selective "successful experiments." Can such literature data be used for reliable machine learning modeling…...

5+ 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…...

6+ day, 13+ hour ago   (176+ words) "Reliable AI-guided discovery in this field cannot come from faster predictions alone," said Seong-Hoon Jang, Associate Professor at Tohoku University. "It requires physical constraints, transparent data, and continuous feedback from real experiments built into the process from the start." This…...
