To achieve a deep understanding of the CMAS corrosion mechanism and lifetime prediction of high-performance thermal/environmental barrier coating materials, the (Er1/4Y1/4Lu1/4Yb1/4)2Si2O7 and ...

Scientists have shown, through probabilistic calculations, that there is indeed, as had been hypothesized, a rule of 'entropy' for the phenomenon of quantum entanglement. This finding could help drive ...

The traditional approach to materials design is to start with a base composition and then tune its chemistry by adding smaller amounts of other elements or compounds. However, a new approach has ...

A challenge in materials design is that in both natural and humanmade materials, volume sometimes decreases, or increases, with increasing temperature. While there are mechanical explanations for this ...
