The researchers tested their new approach on two groups of metals: five high-melting-point metals (vanadium, molybdenum, ...

The interplay between attractive London dispersion forces and steric effects due to repulsive forces often determines the geometry and stability of nanostructures, but for nanocomposites ...

Alloys traditionally consist of two or more metallic elements, with secondary elements enhancing the properties of a primary ...

Skoltech and MIPT researchers have sped up the search for high-performance metal alloys for the aerospace industry, ...

Entropy always increases, but in quantum systems, traditional entropy measures seem constant. TU Wien researchers resolved this paradox by considering Shannon entropy, which accounts for the ...

Most metals expand when their temperature rises. The Eiffel Tower, for example, is about 10 to 15 centimeters taller in ...

The study uncovers the invar effect, enabling the creation of a pyrochlore magnet with unprecedented thermal expansion ...

Through a multi-university collaboration, researchers have discovered a new, solid lubricating mechanism that can reduce friction in machinery at extremely high temperatures, well beyond the breakdown ...

Commissions do not affect our editors' opinions or evaluations. The best high-yield savings account is Capital One 360 Performance Savings Account™, earning the top rating of 5.0 stars in our study.

Unfortunately for savers, the base rate has since started to drop, meaning that rates are no longer quite as high as they were a few months ago. But 89% of cash Isas still pay above December's rate of ...

Saving rates soared over the last couple of years, but they've now started to fall in the wake of the Bank of England cutting its base rate. With lower returns likely to be a theme of the coming ...

This study explores the microstructural characterization of pearlite phase transformation in high-strength low-alloy API X60 steel ... Subsequent statistical analysis employing a two-sample t-test ...
