Building bridges in physics

Researchers from Osaka University have discovered a connection between strain equations for atomic dislocations and the Biot-Savart law in electromagnetism. This link enables researchers to use a well-known formula to analyze the effects of dislocations, leading to new findings on material science.

Finding new alloys just became simpler

Researchers developed a theoretical model to predict the strength of millions of alloys at high temperatures. Experiments confirmed the predictions, highlighting the importance of edge dislocations in determining yield strength in complex high-entropy alloys.

The secret to improving liquid crystal's mechanical performance

Researchers found that adding nanoparticles to liquid crystals improves their mechanical performance by increasing their lubricating properties. The study used a formula to approximate mobility of dislocations and performed numerical simulations to understand how Cottrell clouds erode when dislocations move at high speed.
