Researchers at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology created a new material based on the skeleton of a deep-sea ...

But storing CO 2 in building materials could help make them more environmentally friendly. Scientists report that they have designed a composite decking material that stores more CO 2 than is ...

Composite materials have their microstructure designed in terms of their macroscopic constituents, e.g. fibers in a homogeneous matrix material. By controlling the choice of fibers, their volume ...

All those sea sponges that live in deep oceans have a secret: their light lattice-like forms are astonishingly stiff and ...

Louisville homeowners who are looking to rebuild their fences or decks must comply with the city’s new Fire Hardening ...

biodegradable and recyclable materials Life cycle assessment (LCA) for sustainability-driven product marketing Innovating solutions for composite building materials Through this case-study style ...

A UB engineer has made the first observation of semiconducting behavior in a carbon composite material, a finding that could revolutionize the fields of "smart" structures and electronics. The ...

Composite materials are made from two or more different types of material. For example, MDF is made from wood fibres and glue, and fibreglass is made from a mesh of glass fibres set in a tough ...

This study highlights the potential of 3D-printed geopolymer composites as a sustainable building material. By combining industrial waste with advanced manufacturing techniques, researchers ...

The surface coating gives the composite pre-stressing ... We need to get rid of all fossil material, not only in the energy sector, but in buildings as well: cement today is based by 100% on fossil ...

The numerical computing environment MATLAB will be used for matrix manipulation throughout the course. Composite materials are materials comprising two or more material phases with different physical ...

This breakthrough initiative unites various global leaders in their field: Groupe Beneteau, world’s leading manufacturer of ...
