Materials management deals with the research, development, manufacturing and processing of raw and industrial materials. Key aspects here are biological and medical issues, which play an increasingly important role in this field.
innovations-report offers in-depth articles related to the development and application of materials and the structure and properties of new materials.
Structural damage in lightweight components – caused by bird strikes on an aircraft wing, for example – is often difficult to detect using conventional non-destructive testing methods. Two new research…
A group of chemists from Kaunas University of Technology in Lithuania, the authors of numerous breakthrough innovations in the solar energy field, proposed yet another solution to increase the stability…
… into a 100-times stronger, ductile hybrid carbon microlattice material. Developing a lightweight material that is both strong and highly ductile has been regarded as a long-desired goal in the…
Technology reported in UC Riverside-led study has nanoelectronic applications. A research team led by a physicist at the University of California, Riverside, has demonstrated a new magnetized state in a monolayer…
Research team develops model to explain how cilia beat. Cilia are tiny, hair-like structures on cells throughout our bodies that beat rhythmically to serve a variety of functions when they…
The research has been published in Science Robotics. One of the first demonstrations is that of a pneumatic hand made using a simple 3D printer. Artificial pneumatic muscles consisting of…
