City University of Hong Kong researchers have accidentally discovered a first-of-its-kind alloy that retains its stiffness instead of softening as the temperature rises. Indeed, high-entropy Elinvar ...

Researchers in the labs of Christopher Bates, an assistant professor of materials at UC Santa Barbara, and Michael Chabinyc, a professor of materials and chair of the department, have teamed to ...

A recent article in Communications Materials proposed a novel approach to enhance the elastic modulus of a cast aluminum alloy by incorporating isostructural Laves phases to form a multi-component, ...

What is Young's Modulus? Young's modulus, also known as the elastic modulus, is a mechanical property that measures the stiffness of a solid material. It quantifies the relationship between stress ...

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 ...

Off-highway vehicles operate in conditions that challenge hard-working components and the materials they are made of. Those vehicles and ancillary equipment must withstand summers in the Australian ...
