Using neutrons to see the additive manufacturing process at the atomic level, scientists have shown that they can measure strain in a material as it evolves and track how atoms move in response to stress.
Three scientists from the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory have been elected fellows of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, or AAAS.
Six ORNL scientists have been elected as fellows to the American Association for the Advancement of Science, or AAAS.
Using additive manufacturing, scientists experimenting with tungsten at Oak Ridge National Laboratory hope to unlock new potential of the high-performance heat-transferring material used to protect components from the plasma inside a fusion reactor.
Nearly 100 commercial nuclear reactors supply one-fifth of America’s energy.
Moving rods of spent nuclear fuel (SNF) to interim storage or a geologic repository requires road or rail travel.
