Continued and accelerating change in the thermal environment places an ever-greater priority on understanding how organisms are going to respond. The paradigm of ‘move, adapt or die’, regarding ways ...
When temperatures increase, most materials tend to expand, causing a change in material dimensions. When two materials that exhibit different thermal expansion behaviors are in direct contact, such as ...
A group of researchers led by Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin (HZB) in Germany and China’s Henan University investigated repeated thermal stress cycles, reflecting diurnal cycles, on the degradation of metal ...
Thermal stress is one of many factors that can cause glass to break, even when it is not impacted by a projectile. Such failures usually are not a testament to the quality of the glass, but rather the ...

Researchers identify unexpected flaw in high-efficiency solar panels: 'Thermal stress is the key'
Experts at Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin have found temperature swings to be a leading cause of perovskite solar cell failure. If the findings can lead to commercialization of the promising ray-wrangling ...
When consideration is given to track engineering and maintenance, many newcomers to the railroad industry don’t realize what massive amount of effort is put forward to properly manage thermal rail ...
Are your environmental test results exposing true device weaknesses, or just reflecting extreme stress conditions?
Thermal management deals with problems arising from heat dissipation, thermal stresses and warping. It is critical in the packaging of power semiconductors and other microelectronic and optoelectronic ...
