The strength–ductility trade-off has been a long-standing dilemma in materials science. This has limited the potential of many structural materials, steels in particular. Here we report a way of ...

This article will go over some basic background about tensile strength of material and then discuss historic material strength improvement to understand what industrial production of new carbon ...

Researchers have developed high-performance nano-architected materials that have the strength of carbon steel but the lightness of Styrofoam. Developed by researchers at the University of Toronto’s ...
