A new "smart materials" process developed by researchers in the Centre for Advanced Materials Joining based in the department of mechanical and mechatronics engineering at the University of Waterloo ...

The Chalmers researchers used a novel, atomically thin material in tiny memory devices, here seen as clusters of golden dots on the top of the chip. The material combines two opposing magnetic forces ...

[From Materials Innovation to Scalable Industrial Production] Through this agreement, Graphy secures a strategic position beyond a conventional material supplier, becoming the exclusive provider of ...

Scientists develop the next generation of highly efficient memory materials with atom-level control. Like the flutter of a butterfly's wings, sometimes small and minute changes can lead to big and ...

The unique properties of shape-memory alloys such as nitinol have lent themselves to a variety of applications across numerous industries, including medical devices. These common shape-memory alloys, ...

Shape memory alloys are exotic materials that can be deformed at room temperature and return to their "remembered," pre-deformed shape when heated. They are used in a broad range of applications, such ...
