A new type of 3D-printed lattice structure has surprised researchers with its strength and light weight. It uses two different lattice structures merged together to eliminate the weak points normally ...

Maintaining existing lattice towers is crucial due to their age, corrosion, and inability to withstand extreme weather, ...

Structural analysis of lattice transmission structures can be a time-consuming task. Fortunately, many tools and software aids have been developed to streamline the process. However, users must employ ...

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) researchers have designed a new class of 3D-printed lattice structures that are lightweight and highly stiff, a combination that is not supposed to be ...

To strengthen alloys, metallurgists often tweak the size and orientation of microscopic crystal grains within the material. Now researchers have applied the same principles at a much larger scale to ...

A lattice structure, originally printed flat, has morphed into the outline of a human face. CREDIT: Lori K. Sanders Researchers have succeeded in 4D-printing material lattices that can shape-morph ...

What occurs during the melting process in two-dimensional systems at the microscopic level? Researchers at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) have explored this phenomenon in thin magnetic ...

All those sea sponges that live in deep oceans have a secret: their light lattice-like forms are astonishingly stiff and strong. Inspired by these fascinating creatures, researchers at Australia's ...
