Moreover, in addition to the above, what if the path where the crack will go is controlled by the molecules of the material ...

(Nanowerk News) For the first time, researchers have been able to observe the way ceramic materials fracture on the atomic scale. They confirm that the arrangement of molecules between grains within a ...

In this course, students will develop a comprehensive understanding of the fracture of soft materials and experimental approaches to measure the fracture properties of soft materials.

The cause of failure in engineering structures is routinely investigated via the detailed study of material fracture surfaces. This remains a key research area in material sciences, with researchers ...

Novadip Biosciences’s bone grafting material NVDX3 has seen all patients achieve bone fracture union in a 12-month Phase ...

Researchers have developed a powerful new method to simulate and predict how cracks form and grow in engineering materials ...

Branched cracks in a single crystal of 2D hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN). (Courtesy: J Lou/Rice University) Fracture tests carried out on hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) show that this 2D material has ...
