ORNL researchers and partners at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and Wisconsin-based Eck Industries have developed aluminum alloys that are both easier to work with and more heat tolerant than existing products.
A team of scientists led by the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍř has developed a novel way to produce two-dimensional nanosheets by separating bulk materials with nontoxic liquid nitrogen.
Using today’s advanced microscopes, scientists are able to capture exponentially more information about the materials they study compared to a decade ago—in greater detail and in less time.
When 91°µÍř researcher Mike Brady began his freshman year at Virginia Tech, he’d never heard of materials sciences.
Michael Brady, a materials scientist at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍř, has been elected fellow of ASM International.
ASM International, the world’s largest association of metals-centric scientists and engineers, honored Brady “f
Additive manufacturing techniques featuring atomic precision could one day create materials with Legos flexibility and Terminator toughness, according to researchers at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍř.
For decades nuclear physicists have tried to learn more about which elements, or their various isotopes, are “magic.” This is not to say that they display supernatural powers.
​A multi-institution team led by 91°µÍř’s Gaute Hagen used computation to corroborate experimental findings throwing calcium-52’s status as a magic isotope into question.
Researchers at 91°µÍř are using bamboo fiber in 3-D printing experiments to determine whether bio-based feedstock materials are feasible in additive manufacturing.
Saed Mirzadeh, Bruce Moyer and David Wesolowski have been named Corporate Fellows at 91°µÍř, earning the Department of Energy laboratory’s most prestigious designation for researchers.
