NUST MISIS scientists have proposed a technology that can double the strength of composites obtained by 3D printing from aluminum powder, and advance the characteristics of these products to the quality of titanium alloys: titanium’s strength is about six times higher than that of aluminum, but the density of titanium is 1.7 times higher. The…
Firmware at the Blink of an Eye: Scientists Develop Technology of Alloy Steel Rolling
A research team from the NUST MISIS Department of Pressure Metal Treatment has developed a new technology which simplifies the process of hot rolling seamless pipes made of alloy and high-alloy steel. The consistent use of two simple male punches, tools that turn an unruly steel blank into a hollow “sleeve”, is a distinctive feature…
New Method Of Measuring Internal Stresses For Aerospace And Aircraft Engineering
Composite materials have become an integral part of our lives: they are used in aviation and space technologies, as well as the automobile and mining industries. However, there has been a problem of internal stress assessment with composite material designs since their inception. “Scientists from the NUST MISIS Center of Composite Materials, led by Professor…
New Piezoelectric Composite Developed at NUST MISIS
NUST MISIS scientists jointly with an international team have developed a composite material with notable piezoelectric properties. The research results were published in Scientific Reports journal. Piezoelectrics are one of the world`s most amazing materials. It is possible to literally squeeze electricity from them. That is, an electric charge appears at the time of the…
