(Nanowerk News) It is estimated that over 80% of engineering failures are due to material fatigue, so the fight against metal fatigue failures continues, as this is a key parameter for lightweight ...

Material fatigue remains one of the most persistent challenges in engineering, responsible for an estimated 80% of structural ...

Researchers developed a 3D printing-based method to tailor metal alloys by composition and structure, creating stronger, application-specific materials. (Nanowerk News) Caltech scientists have ...

Microscope image showing the layered structure of a new 3D-printed aluminum alloy. The wave-like patterns are “melt pools,” traces left by the laser as it melted metal powder layer by layer. The small ...

BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Desktop Metal (NYSE: DM), a global leader in Additive Manufacturing 2.0 technologies for mass production, today announced the launch of a Reactive Safety Kit for the ...

Electron microscope image of the aluminum alloy from the study. The light gray areas are sections of traditional crystals within the aluminum alloy, while the black dots are sections where NIST found ...

High-entropy alloys (HEAs) are metallurgy’s version of having your cake and eating it too, combining multiple elements to ...

Solid phase manufacturing can create new custom metal alloys through an innovative process called solid phase alloying, researchers report. Metal scrap can be directly transformed and upgraded into ...

A team of researchers has created a new class of titanium alloys that are strong and not brittle under tension, by integrating alloy and 3D-printing process designs. They say they embedded circular ...
