![As part of DOE’s HPC4Mobility initiative ORNL researchers developed machine learning algorithms that can control smart traffic lights at intersections to facilitate the smooth flow of traffic and increase fuel efficiency.](/sites/default/files/styles/list_page_thumbnail/public/2019-09/GRIDSMART%20camera%20Leesburg.jpg?h=69d5bf00&itok=fs1X_e0D)
A modern, healthy transportation system is vital to the nation’s economic security and the American standard of living. The U.S. Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) is engaged in a broad portfolio of scientific research for improved mobility
![Snowflakes indicate phases of super-cold ice](/sites/default/files/styles/list_page_thumbnail/public/2019-05/19-G00404_Tulk_PR_0.jpg?h=e4fbc3eb&itok=5fn8aUhP)
An ORNL-led team's observation of certain crystalline ice phases challenges accepted theories about super-cooled water and non-crystalline ice. Their findings, reported in the journal Nature, will also lead to better understanding of ice and its various phases found on other planets, moons and elsewhere in space.
