US scientists simulate elusive ideal glass that behaves mechanically like a crystal
Scientists have created the first computer model of an “ideal glass,” a theoretical material ...
For the first time, scientists have watched metal crystals take shape inside a pool of molten metal, capturing a process that usually unfolds out of sight in the heart of furnaces and casting lines.
A metal is comprised of many individual crystals, or grains. These crystals are held together by electrons in the same way that electrons hold the atoms within each crystal together. For more on this ...
