Understanding how dislocations (line defects in the crystal structure) occur when 3D-printing metals has been unclear to materials scientists. Understanding when and how dislocations form in ...
Researchers used Argonne's Advanced Photon Source to capture how the microstructure of metals evolves in real time during 3D printing. The findings could pave the way for advanced manufacturing of ...
Frustrated systems, typically characterized by competing interactions that cannot all be simultaneously satisfied, display rich behaviours not found elsewhere in nature. Artificial spin ice takes a ...
