Metals are made of randomly oriented crystals at the microscopic-length scale. The alignment of the crystal faces creates an infinite number of configurations and complex patterns, making simulations ...

The properties of steel can be improved in terms of fatigue, weldability, hardness, wear and corrosion resistance, ductility, and tensile strength by either alloy addition or heat treatment processes.

AA2024 is a heat-treatable aluminum-copper alloy that comprises aluminum, copper, magnesium, silicon, iron, and manganese. It provides an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, high tensile strength, and ...

Researchers have invented a machine-learning based algorithm for quantitatively characterizing material microstructure in three dimensions and in real time. This algorithm applies to most structural ...

In a world of 8 billion people, there's one thing that makes each of us unique: our fingerprints. A variety of genetic and environmental factors create tiny variations in the skin's ridges and whorls, ...
