Hypersonic vehicles — aircraft that can reach speeds of Mach 5 and beyond — are subject to extreme conditions while they are in flight, requiring strong yet aerodynamic materials to keep them both ...

Atmospheric CO2 continues to increase and, despite considerable worldwide efforts to cut down on carbon waste, is expected to rise more in coming decades. Researchers demonstrated that new, lower-cost ...

A new computational framework developed by a team with Professor Chris Wolverton maps atomic ordering to unlock ...

Every year, thousands of new materials are created, yet many never reach their full potential because their applications aren't immediately obvious—a challenge University of Toronto researchers aim to ...

Penn State scientists have unveiled a new theory-driven method to predict superconductors, offering a possible path toward ...

Your second and third years have distinctive course requirements and electives. Here we can compare four related majors through select second and third year courses. MSE 2110 - Introduction to ...

Large amounts of brown algae, commonly referred to as sargassum, have been increasingly appearing on beaches far from their usual central Atlantic habitats. In recent years, coastlines across the ...

Researchers can pull carbon directly from the air using changes in humidity, now with materials at a fraction of the cost ‘Vast majority’ of direct air capture research through air’s moisture swings ...
