Images of aluminum alloy 7075 taken with a scanning electron microscope before (A), during (B), and after (C) going through the ShAPE machine show how the microstructure of the alloy changes ...

A recent article published in npj Materials Degradation explored the defining role of nanoscale heterogeneities in corrosion pathways in a high-strength aluminum alloy via detailed electron microscopy ...

Developed in the 1940s, AA7075 is an aluminum alloy that's almost as strong as steel, yet it weighs just one third as much. Unfortunately its use has been limited, due to the fact that pieces of it ...

When Ford began building the F-150 with mostly aluminum bodies in 2014, the popular truck slimmed down by about 700 pounds. That change was designed to improve gas mileage and save money at the fuel ...

By applying machine learning techniques, engineers at MIT have created a new method for 3D printing metal alloys that produce ...
