Imagine a material cracking—now imagine what happens if there are small inclusions in the material. Do they create an ...
The mechanical strength and toughness of engineering materials are often mutually exclusive, posing challenges for material design and selection. To address this, a research team from The Hong Kong ...
A class of materials that consist almost entirely of air, yet rival or exceed the mechanical performance of steel by weight, ...
Knots are known for boosting the strength of materials, from the tiniest twists of DNA to (potentially) the very fabric of the universe. Now, Caltech engineers have developed a new material consisting ...
Mastering board-level insulation principles like clearance, creepage, and dielectric strength is key to preventing arcing and ...
