Researchers have identified peptides that can help remove microplastics from the environment by combining biophysical modeling, molecular dynamics, quantum computing, and reinforcement learning ...

The decisive factor is often the arrangement of the molecules in the atomic lattice structure or on the surface of the material. Materials science utilizes ...

neither granular nor crystalline, that responds to some stresses as a fluid would and to others like a solid. The new material, known as PAM (for polycatenated architected materials) could ...

Recently, a research team uncovered the propagation and toughening mechanism of tortuous crack front in bioinspired ...

Glass might seem to be an ordinary material we encounter every day, but the physics at play inside are actually quite complex and still not completely understood by scientists. Some panes of glass, ...

We undertook a systematic review to investigate the different computer simulation methods and their contribution for analysis of patient flow within EDs in the UK. Methods We searched eight ...

Anisotropic materials play a critical role in today's manufacturing processes and other applications. Their unique ability to retain their shape under extreme thermal conditions has made these ...

Scientists have discovered a new type of planetary collision called “kiss-and-capture,” where Pluto and proto-Charon briefly connected and spun together before separating into their current orbital ...

Researchers swap nitrogen and boron into DNA to create analogues that are geometrically and electrostatically equivalent to ...

At Argonne National Laboratory, scientists have leveraged the Frontier supercomputer to create an unprecedented simulation of ...

With the advent of machine learning and artificial intelligence, materials science could be poised to take its next big leap ...

Materials science is an interdisciplinary field concerned with the understanding and application of the properties of matter. Materials scientists study the connections between the underlying ...
