These miniature structures, hidden beneath a thin premelting layer of water, develop and evolve because of a dynamic interplay between the gas, liquid and solid phases—which exist simultaneously....
Scientists at The University of Tokyo use computer simulations to model the effects of elemental composition on the glass-forming ability of metallic mixtures, which may lead to tough, electroconductive glasses Credit: Institute of Industrial Science, the University of Tokyo Researchers from the Institute of Industrial Science at the University of Tokyo used molecular dynamics...
