A team of researchers has successfully predicted abnormal grain growth in simulated polycrystalline materials for the first time -- a development that could lead to the creation of stronger, more ...

Materials failures account for a significant percentage of medical device recalls and performance problems but are often overlooked as a potential source of risk. Amy Heintz, PhD Will the materials in ...

Mechanical parts are more frequently subjected to cyclic loads than solely static loads. Fatigue issues are commonly observed in turbine blades, aerospace components, locomotive systems, large ...
