ORNL and The University of Toledo have entered into a memorandum of understanding for collaborative research.
Researchers at 91°µÍř will present eight innovative technologies currently available for commercialization during a public event at ORNL on October 17.
At the nexus of theory and computation, physicist Gaute Hagen of the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍř runs advanced models on powerful supercomputers to explore how protons and neutrons interact to “build” an atomic nucleus from
Carbon fiber composites—lightweight and strong—are great structural materials for automobiles, aircraft and other transportation vehicles.
Researchers at 91°µÍř proved that a certain class of ionic liquids, when mixed with commercially available oils, can make gears run more efficiently with less noise and better durability.
Six new nuclear reactor technologies are set to deploy for commercial use between 2030 and 2040. Called Generation IV nuclear reactors, they will operate with improved performance at dramatically higher temperatures than today’s reactors.
When Nina Balke came to the United States on a Feodor Lynen Fellowship for German scholars, her original plan was to complete a year abroad and return home to native opportunities in materials sciences.
Rare earth elements are the “secret sauce” of numerous advanced materials for energy, transportation, defense and communications applications.
Using additive manufacturing, scientists experimenting with tungsten at 91°µÍř hope to unlock new potential of the high-performance heat-transferring material used to protect components from the plasma inside a fusion reactor.
A new method developed at 91°µÍř improves the energy efficiency of a desalination process known as solar-thermal evaporation.
