Instead of heating metals, Foundation Alloy beats them into submission. The startup has raised $22 million to scale up ...

Aluminum and magnesium are among the “many” metals that melt at lower temperatures under extremely high pressure. The results came from a quantum computer simulation, but model real materials ...

Most robots are designed for a specific job, and aren’t very adaptable. But engineers at Virginia Tech have now developed a soft robot that can morph into a range of shapes, such as driving, flying or ...

Explore the potential of liquid metal batteries as an innovative solution for energy storage. This technology could provide a lower-cost, simpler assembly, zero maintenance, and a longer lifespan ...
