9 Material Discoveries that Could Transform Manufacturing
2020年5月13日 · The unique nanostructure of the material provides a tensile stiffness of 86 gigapascals and a tensile strength of 1.57 gigapascals—eight times stiffer than spider silk, considered the strongest biomaterial, and stronger than steel on a weight basis. This lightweight material could be an eco-friendly substitute for plastic.
Eight new materials that could impact manufacturing - ASME
2023年3月28日 · A new super-elastic metal alloy discovered by researchers at Tohoku University in Japan could be the perfect material for joint implants. Common metal materials of nickel and titanium in hip or knee joint replacements are stiffer than bone, which can lead to bone loss; flexible materials in implants, however, lose their wear resistance over time.
New Material Combines Strength and Energy Storage - ASME
2024年1月18日 · Imagine your phone’s case was made from a material that allowed you to charge your device and extend the time between recharging cycles. Tse Nga (Tina) Ng, a professor of electrical and computer engineering at the University of California, San Diego, led a team in collaboration with colleague Xinyu Zhang, to develop such a material, which ...
Top 5 Trends in Materials Engineering - ASME
2013年5月8日 · The trick was putting nanotubes in chlorosulfonic acid and drawing them out through tiny holes. The resulting thread is ten times as strong as steel. And it’s as conductive as copper. “Spinning smoke” is what David Burleigh, a professor in the Materials and Metallurgical department at New Mexico Tech, calls it.
which the new material is to be approved (b) the temperature range of intended application (c) whether cyclic service is to be considered (d) whether external pressure is to be considered The inquirer shall identify all product forms, size ranges, and specifications or specification requirements for the material for which approval is desired ...
New Nanomaterial Proves Stronger Than Kevlar - ASME
2023年3月2日 · Greer’s new material is a nano-architected material made with tiny carbon struts that proved to be strong enough to stop these nanoparticles traveling at supersonic speeds. Pound for pound, this material was more effective at stopping a projectile than Kevlar and other materials used in personal protective gear. How it works
5 Ways to Make Roads More Sustainable - The American Society …
2020年11月24日 · The newly added material adheres to the old for an easy resurfacing. Even if aggregate needs to be imported, the product is cheaper than asphalt: 70 cents for two inches compared to asphalt’s $1.75, according to the firm.
New 3D Printing Method Cuts Material Development Time in Half
2024年2月12日 · Using these traditional approaches, it typically takes 10-20 years to discover, test, and commercialize a new material. To accelerate this process, a University of Notre Dame research team led by Yanliang Zhang, associate professor of aerospace and mechanical engineering, decided to explore ways of using additive manufacturing (AM) to speed up ...
Nanopore Material Packs in the Hydrogen - ASME
2024年8月6日 · In fact, the high density of hydrogen molecules within the material exceeds that of the solid state, highlighting the efficiency of this novel storage approach. Moving forward This groundbreaking development in efficient, high-capacity hydrogen storage marks an important advancement for future energy systems.
Do We Have the Materials for an Energy Transition? - ASME
2023年12月1日 · Tackling these material challenges also require a focus from engineers to develop more efficient processes and new machines that require fewer or different materials. However, while good engineering can lessen the degree of the material constraints, they can’t erase them altogether. That last point is the most important one to remember.
