Researchers created a fiber-reinforced composite that resisted delamination and repeatedly healed itself using heat-activated ...

Researchers have created a self-healing composite that is tougher than materials currently used in aircraft wings, turbine blades and other applications – and can repair itself more than 1,000 times.

Researchers have found in a new study that flowable short fiber–reinforced resin composite demonstrated significantly higher ...

Researchers have developed a scheme for AI-assisted design of fiber reinforced composite (FRC) structures with spatially varying optimal fiber sizes, making FRCs more lightweight without compromising ...

Teton Simulation’s SmartSlice design module for 3D printing resides within the slicer software and helps the user optimize the design and reduce print time. It also helps the user make decisions about ...

Researchers at the AGH University of Krakow in Poland and its Eko-Energia AGH student group have published a study about their approach to lightweight bifacial vehicle integrated PV (VIPV) modules, ...

Most people are aware that plastic waste is a problem. Almost all types of plastics that we use in our everyday lives are derived from fossil sources. When they end up in the environment, they cause ...

Researchers in Switzerland have unveiled a recyclable epoxy resin that enables reuse of composite materials in aircraft and ...
