Researchers have found special atomic patterns called quasicrystals in 3D-printed aluminum alloys. Quasicrystals increase the strength of 3D-printed aluminum, the researchers discovered, making it ...

Researchers have determined that the strength of 3D-printed aluminum-zirconium alloys may be due to quasicrystals in the metal's structure. Quasicrystals were the subject of the 2011 Nobel Prize in ...

We compare the Fizik Vento Antares R3 Adaptive 3D-Printed saddle and the Fizik Vento Antares R3 saddle - what did we think?

In 2017, a team at HRL Laboratories, based in California, and UC Santa Barbara discovered a high-strength aluminum alloy that ...

While the main structure is ready, some features like ticket machines and IC card readers are still being installed. The ...

As Japan’s population shrinks, maintaining rail service in remote small towns is becoming a challenge. Is this the answer?

The quasicrystals found in this study form the corners of 20-sided shape called an icosahedron. To prove that he found an icosahedron, Andrew Iams had ...

Discover how part orientation affects strength, finish, and efficiency in 3D printing. Learn optimization techniques that improve performance and reduce waste.

There is so much more engineering that goes into bikes than people think. I think bikes have been around for so long we take ...

Cosplay has been transformed by 3D printing, giving fans the ability to create and share jaw-dropping costumes and props that ...

A new process, named STAMP, from MIT which uses 3D printing could help researchers to properly align fibers in artificial ...
