Lightweighting can improve the strength, stability and performance of electric vehicles. To address the challenge, automakers are exploring new materials that boost operating range, one of the biggest hurdles to widespread EV acceptance.
According to expert materials scientist and author Julia Goldstein, here are five tips for accomplishing more sustainable, less wasteful manufacturing operations and products.
PARMA, Italy—A team of engineers here have harnessed new photonics technology to develop the world's first fluid-repellent, antibacterial, metal surface.
RICHLAND, WA—Engineers at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory here have developed a new process for joining aluminum and steel. Friction stir dovetailing was inspired by assembly techniques used in woodworking.
Roughnecks (a term widely used in the oil and gas industry to describe oil-field workers) demand tough materials for equipment that must work around the clock in hostile environments. Delays
