NASA Glenn and Boeing partner to test shape memory alloys in airplane winglets

Researchers at NASA Glenn Research Laboratory, Cleveland, have partnered with Boeing to test how shape-memory alloys can be used in deployable vortex generators (VGs), the tiny fins on airplane wings that help control airflow during flight.

One Minute Mentor: Carbonitriding

In addition to having many of the same benefits as carburizing, carbonitriding also has the added benefit of nitrogen diffused in the surface layer, which stabilizes retained austenite.

Nickel-titanium SMA developed for elastocaloric cooling via additive manufacturing

The Alliance for the Development of Additive Processing Technologies (ADAPT) at Colorado School of Mines announces that its scientists are part of an international research team that developed a new nickel-titanium elastocaloric cooling alloy that is highly efficient, eco-friendly, and easily scaled up.
