When ice melts into water, it happens quickly, with the transition from solid to liquid being immediate. However, very thin ...

Advances in materials science have led to the development of "smart materials," whose properties do not remain static but ...

Abstract: Harnessing phase change materials (PCMs) for thermal management of power electronic devices shows potential to improve their reliability while decreasing the size, weight, power, and cost ...

Aluminum has long been treated as a workhorse metal, valued for its light weight and corrosion resistance rather than any ...

Physicists have identified a strange electronic phase in a carefully engineered material that behaves in ways ordinary metals ...

Abstract: The main goal of the TerraSAR-X Add-On for Digital Elevation Measurements (TanDEM-X) mission is the generation of a global digital elevation model (DEM) of unprecedented accuracy and ...

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), while dominant in energy storage due to high energy density and cycling stability, suffer from ...

Due to the unique conditions of the space environment and abundant resources, the field investigation and study of the Moon, ...

Researchers at KRISS observed water’s rapid freeze–melt cycles under ultrahigh pressure and discovered Ice XXI, the first new ice phase found in decades. Using advanced high-pressure tech and ...
