Mathematicians have found that they can design a range of composite materials from moiré patterns created by rotating and stretching one lattice relative to another. Their electrical and other ...

How do you decide on the “right” fastener type for a component or assembly involving composite and plastic materials in a time-efficient way? To define which materials and concepts a fastener type is ...

“Self-responsive” nanomaterial-based composites AMRC’s Matthew Collinson (top photo) inspects a composite demonstrator component incorporating carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and copper contacts to enable ...

Composite materials have revolutionized our industry, bringing outstanding performance to commonly used materials. However, designing these materials for maximum performance is not always intuitive.
