A multi-disciplinary team of researchers linked atomic-scale features to efficient heat-to-electricity conversion, offering ...

When scientists study how materials behave under extreme conditions, they typically examine what happens under compression. But what occurs when you pull matter apart in all directions simultaneously?

Research in mechanics of solids mainly includes fundamental theory (elasticity, plasticity, variational principles, fatigue and fracture of materials and structures,and inelastic constitutive ...

An introductory course focused on the new and existing materials that are crucial for mitigating worldwide anthropogenic CO2 emissions and associated greenhouse gases. Emphasis will be placed on how ...

Chemists have developed a generative AI model that can make it much easier to determine the structures of powdered crystal materials. The prediction model could help researchers characterize materials ...

In this article, we get technical. What is Floquet engineering, and how can this quantum-level science impact materials? We ...

Programmable material systems are emerging architectural structures but the co-design of structure, material, and external stimuli present grand challenges. A team with Northwestern Engineering’s Wei ...
