Intertek, U.K., a leading total quality assurance provider to industries worldwide, has expanded its materials testing capabilities with the opening of a new lab at its Transportation Technologies facility in Plymouth, Michigan.
Bruker launches new timsMRMS mass spectrometry platform for unique ultra-complex mixture applications in the energy industry
MIT researchers use AI to uncover atomic defects in materials
Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology built an AI model trained on 2,000 different semiconductor materials using data from a noninvasive neutron-scattering technique that can detect and classify up to six kinds of point defects in a material simultaneously, something that would be impossible using conventional techniques alone.
The Hidden Battle Inside Steel: Vanadium vs. Molybdenum MC vs. M6C Carbides
What makes high-speed steel incredibly hard, wear-resistant, and capable of retaining a sharp cutting edge? The answer lies in the microscopic world of carbide formation. This video explores the science behind MC vs. M6C carbides, explaining how Vanadium and Molybdenum influence steel microstructure, heat treatment, hardness, toughness, and cutting performance. Learn how MC carbides provide […]
The wavy window paradox
In this video from Minute Physics, see how the wavy window paradox is explained by Snell’s law, exposing why glass distortion ruins reflections but leaves optical transmission perfectly clear.
