What’s Inside Your Materials? Scientists Reveal the Micro Secrets of Modern Engineering

What’s Inside Your Materials?

In the world of material science and engineering, we rarely deal with completely uniform, “perfect” materials. Real-world materials — such as composites, rocks, foams, polymers, and biological tissues — are typically heterogeneous, meaning they are made up of different phases, inclusions, voids, or grains. To truly understand how these materials behave under stress, temperature changes, … Read more
