A rule-breaking discovery by Dean Christopher Schuh reveals a new way to strengthen metal in extreme conditions.

What takes eight years and $8 billion? Building a new LaGuardia Airport, which now stands exactly where the old LaGuardia ...

The microbe Pyrodictium abyssi is an archaeon—a member of what's known as the third domain of life—and an extremophile. It lives in deep-sea thermal vents, at temperatures above the boiling point of ...

There's a reason why blacksmiths fire metals before hammering them. Heat always softens metal, making it more malleable and easier to reshape. Or does it? In a surprising new study, Northwestern ...

Abstract: The current fundamental limits such as Shockley–Queisser, ergodic light-trapping limit, diffraction-limited imaging (Abbe diffraction limit), noise in detection, reciprocal optical systems ...

Follow the race to build a world-class airport on the site of one of America’s busiest flying hubs. In New York City, a team of elite engineers and construction workers are on a mission to build the ...

At the core of uncovering extreme events such as floods is the physics of fluids – specifically turbulent flows. Researchers leveraged a computer-vision deep learning technique and adapted it for ...

A testing campaign led by the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) ...
