News Researchers 3D print first high-performance nanostructured alloy that’s both ultrastrong and ductile
“Researchers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst and the Georgia Institute of Technology has 3D printed a dual-phase, nanostructured high-entropy alloy that exceeds the strength and ductility of other state-of-the-art additively manufactured materials, which could lead to higher-performance components for …
“New sensor can measure unknown sugar concentrations in real-time Researchers have harnessed the light-guiding properties of spider silk to develop a sensor that can detect and measure small changes in the refractive index of a biological solution, including glucose and …
“Inspired by a fiddler crab eye, scientists developed an amphibious artificial vision system with a panoramic visual field. Giving our hardware sight has empowered a host of applications in self-driving cars, object detection, and crop monitoring. But unlike animals, synthetic …
“Algorithms designed to ensure multiple users share a network fairly can’t prevent some users from hogging all the bandwidth. When users want to send data over the internet faster than the network can handle, congestion can occur — the same …
