Creating the effect of battle damage on a 3D asset often takes the skill of multiple VFX artists, but is by all accounts a ...

Imagine printing a nuclear reactor core — or nuclear fuel pellets — in 3D. It may sound far-fetched that 3D printing could create materials robust enough to withstand the extreme environment of a ...

Researchers at ORNL have successfully designed, 3D printed, and tested a crucial component for their High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR). This component, known as a "rabbit capsule," is a small container ...

Researchers are exploring the use of 3D printing to create tungsten components for extreme conditions in nuclear reactors. Iowa State’s Sougata Roy is leading a project to explore new ways to process ...

Stainless steel has long been a workhorse material for the nuclear industry. It fortifies walls and forms crucial components throughout nuclear reactors, where it withstands decades of extreme heat, ...

Nuclear fusion, the mechanism that powers the sun, is now reportedly one step closer to being understood by scientists thanks to a 3D visualization produced by one of the top laboratories in the world ...
