Materials Science and Engineering

Taking inspiration from nature, researchers discovered a class of materials that behave like axons by spontaneously strengthening electrical pulses that travel along transmission lines.

Researchers zero in on the underlying mechanism that causes alloys to crack when exposed to hydrogen-rich environments.

A developing new materials discovery framework creates a pathway to printable parts for turbine engines.

Inspired by fire ant survival behavior, Texas A&M researchers developed a method that allows synthetic materials to assemble into a structure and disassemble autonomously in response to an environmental change.

A team of researchers is developing a less invasive, longer-lasting implantation technique with shape-changing capabilities designed for patients with neurological disorders.

The Defense University Research Instrumentation Program will support the acquisition of a high-sensitivity multi-modal calorimeter for advanced research and education on tunable energy storage materials.

Dr. Abdoulaye Djire, graduate student David Kumar Yesudoss and Dr. Miladin Radovic developed a cost-effective catalyst that could enable hydrogen production from renewable sources.

A recent surprise observation of metal healing itself during fracture experiments at Sandia National Laboratories has provided the first experimental evidence of a theory proposed a decade ago by Texas A&M University researcher Dr. Michael Demkowicz.

Researchers investigated the fatigue behavior of 2D hybrid materials, opening doors to their widespread use in real-world applications.

A multidisciplinary team of Texas A&M University researchers from three departments are working to advance the performance of thermal energy storage systems.
