U.S. Army Develop Ultra-Strong 3-D Printed Steel Parts to Revolutionize Battlefield Logistics

The U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command (CCDC) of the Army Research Laboratory (ARL) is using customized steel alloy powder to 3-D print high-strength spare parts for ground vehicles in a bid to “to revolutionize logistics.” “Additive manufacturing is going to have a huge impact on sustainment,” said Dr. Brandon McWilliams, a team lead in

Super Magnesium Alloy: Lighter Than Aluminum and Cheaper Than Carbon Fiber

The creators of a new high-strength, low-weight metal alloy hope it will find a place as a midpoint between carbon fiber and lightweight aluminum. Allite Super Magnesium, an alloy previously only available to military and aerospace but now being targeted at a range of other applications, is lighter and stiffer than aluminum, but not as

Army, Arizona State University (ASU) Team on New Alloy With Superhero-Like Strength

Researchers from the U.S. Army Research Laboratory and ASU have teamed up on a new material composition that super heroes, if real, would envy. They”ve designed a super strong alloy of copper and tantalum that can withstand extreme impact and temperature. It”s likely the closest material on earth to vibranium, a rare, fictitious metallic substance
