SEOUL, South Korea--(BUSINESS WIRE)--TMD LAB (CEO Hak-Joon Sung) and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) under the U.S. Department of Commerce are starting joint research on the ...

Researchers are working to better understand the complex internal microstructures of shape memory alloys and the results of their first-of-their-kind experiments. Shape memory alloys are well known ...

Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology are developing unique polymers, which change shape upon heating, to open blocked arteries, probe neurons in the brain and engineer a tougher spine.

A recent study in Nature Communications presents a new class of shape memory polymer (SMP) surfaces embedded with nanotips. These surfaces feature tunable nanoscale roughness, enabling adjustable dry ...
