A research team at Sandia National Laboratories used machine learning to complete materials science calculations 42,000 times faster than normal. This means designing materials for new, advanced technologies in optics, aerospace, energy storage and medicine could accelerate, Lab Manager noted on the research.
Overlay societal concerns with reducing, reusing and recycling materials and the outcome could be dramatic.
Natural biomaterials show potential for the next generation of green electronics due to their biocompatibility and biodegradability, according to the first issue of Science and Technology of Advanced Materials.
Going from design to production then becomes an issue but with additive manufacturing technologies advancing and speeding up the ability to take the physical realm into new territories becomes scalable.
It has been too long since the GCV Materials Society has met in person but will be gathering again for a roundtable at the end of April to discuss changes. Reach out to jmawson@mawsonia.com for more details.
