Rare earth elements, such as those found in the mineral monazite, are essential for technologies ranging from renewable energy to electronics.

This invention aids in processing a material that cannot be made any other way because of limited dissolution meaning that liquid phase sintering does not work to achieve the same material.

Technologies are described directed to reducing weld additive part distortion with spot compressions integrated into the build process. The disclosed technologies can be used to make weld additive parts with potentially better geometrical accuracy.

The scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM) provides unprecedented spatial resolution and is critical for many applications, primarily for imaging matter at the atomic and nanoscales and obtaining spectroscopic information at similar length scales.

This invention provides novel composition and strategy for multifunctional polymers, which have strong adhesion, wide variety of mechanical properties, self-healing ability, shape-memory capability, high damping, tear resistance and fracture toughness.

Servomotor adjustment could decrease the time required to align a machine tool frame, and encourage manufacturing companies to perform frame alignments more frequently.

In this invention disclosure, a real platform and algorithms to implement a voltage service limits (VSL) smart contract with a Cyber Grid Guard (CGG) software system using distributed ledger technology (DLT) for an electrical utility grid with customer-owned wind farm was pres

The technologies provide a low cost, low carbon footprint filler for thermoplastic and thermoset material in various manufacturing processes.
