Some Fontaine Fusion flatbed trailer manufactured between February 2025, and March 2026 could have mainbeams weakened by ...

When deciding what material to use for infrastructure projects, metals are often selected for their durability. However, if placed in a hydrogen-rich environment, like water, metals can become brittle ...

On an assembly line, high-strength screws are precisely tightened using DC drivers. Once installed, each screw holds more than 6,000lb of pre-load. After coming off the assembly line, the assembled ...

During the replacement of the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge’s eastern span in 2013, 277 vertical steel rods intended to improve the replacement’s seismic stability were tested under tension using ...

Even the best alloys can't last forever, so we applied statistical thermodynamics to materials science and found a better way to dope zirconium alloys to use in fuel rod cladding. Share on Facebook ...

A study led by University of Oxford and Brookhaven National Laboratory researchers has uncovered how exposure to hydrogen atoms dynamically alters the internal structure of stainless steel. The ...
