Researchers have devised a revolutionary new technique for measuring the microscopic elasticity of materials. Known as SRAS, the technology works by measuring the speed of sound across the material's ...

The study of elasticity and constitutive relations forms a cornerstone in materials science, providing essential insights into how materials respond under various loading conditions. This domain ...

Scientists experimenting with a cutting-edge ultrasound technique have come up with a groundbreaking and incredibly precise way to measure the elasticity of materials at a microscopic scale. Based on ...

A method has been developed by an international team of researchers that uses liquid metal to produce an elastic material that is virtually immune to both gases and liquids. The material can be used ...

Researchers have constructed microscopic carbon structures that boast the best combination of strength and elasticity of any material studied to date (Nat. Nanotechnol. 2019, DOI: ...

Scientist have succeeded in characterizing the interface between an elastic-plastic material and a light material under acceleration. Arindam Banerjee, an associate professor of mechanical engineering ...

(Nanowerk News) Classical robots, such as those used for manufacturing, can lift heavy loads and repeat automated processes precisely. But they are too rigid and bulky for delicate work and ...

The nanoindentation technique is extensively used for characterization of mechanical properties in small volumes. Due to its local character, the nanoindentation technique has also recently been used ...

A new elastic calcium phosphate material that closely resembles the structure of human bone has been successfully created by a research team from the Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology at the ...

However, finding a new material with the desired properties has been described as a needle in a haystack problem. Along with the stiffness of the material, the elasticity matrix also provides insight ...
