Researchers have created an innovative hybrid printing method -- combining multi-material aerosol jet printing and extrusion printing -- that integrates both functional and structural materials into a single streamlined printing platform.

Glass blocks or glass bricks are wall bricks made of glass. They provide visual opacity and light transmission at the same time, making them an...

Sodic soils are formed when sodium ions are relatively higher than the other cations, impacting the soil structure. The amount of sodium in the soil...

The construction industry is one of the least automated ones and depends chiefly on manual labor. However, there has been an increasing acceptance of...

Soil improvement methods are adopted to increase the shear strength and the density of soil, preventing the occurrence of liquefaction and providing...

Researchers have new insight into molecules that change their shape in response to light. The researchers studying azobenzene-based polymers found that their free volume -- a measure of the space between polymer chains -- was strongly linked with the polymers' ability to convert visible light radiation into mechanical energy.
