Modeling and characterizing ferroelectric materials across scales
Through multiscale simulations and many-scales-spanning experiments we explore the complex electro-mechanically behavior of ferroelectric ceramics.
Artificial intelligence for safer bike helmets and better shoe soles
Researchers have trained an artificial intelligence to design the structure of so-called metamaterials with desired mechanical properties for a wide range of applications.
