This discovery may lead to new aluminum alloys specifically designed to leverage quasicrystals for improved strength. A Penrose tile pattern has some of the same properties as quasicrystals. Even ...

The quasicrystals found in this study form the corners of 20-sided shape called an icosahedron ... He was examining a sliver of a new aluminum alloy at the atomic scale, searching for the key to its ...

3D printing creates shapes that would be impossible with any other method. For example, in 2015 GE designed fuel nozzles for airplane engines that could only be made with metal 3D printing.

It will also open the door to research on new aluminum alloys that use quasicrystals for strength. Quasicrystals are like ordinary crystals but with a few key differences. The quasicrystals found in ...

HUNTINGTON — Jonathan Cox, a former professor of sculpture at Marshall University known for his art installations across the state, is hoping to install his newest sculpture, “River Flow ...

Shapeshifter has a fitting concept. It sees Memphis May Fire diving into the ‘masks’ we wear in our everyday lives, and the struggles of wrestling with identity in the age of social media.
