At first glance, few materials would seem to have less in common than metals and textiles. And yet, by manufacturing nickel-titanium alloys as a highly deformable, interwoven material, more similar to ...

Metal alloys crack and fail through a mechanism called "fatigue" when repeatedly loaded and strained. While it is well known how to design alloys to withstand static loads and pressures, it is very ...

Abstract: The penetration of generalized energy storage re-sources (GESRs) in distribution systems is steadily increasing due to the ever-growing need for flexibility. Existing aggregate flexi-bility ...

Katie Weimer, a biomechanical engineer based in Colorado, was challenged by her mentor to think bigger — to use advances in regenerative medicine to “improve the future of mankind.” That challenge ...

Engineers from the University of Warwick have led the creation of the world’s first structural engineering manual for bamboo, a milestone aimed at accelerating low-carbon construction globally. Bamboo ...
