New research sharpens understanding of the hidden symmetry in a mysterious superconductor. Superconductors are materials that ...

For three decades, one quiet crystal has sat at the center of a fierce argument about how exotic superconductors really work.

Superconductors are materials that can conduct electricity with zero resistance, usually only at very low temperatures. Most superconductors behave according to well-established rules, but strontium ...

The offset shear strength is the shear stress endured by a material at the intersection of the shear stress versus the engineering shear strain curve, with a line parallel to a defined modulus and ...

The member shows a tensile normal component of strain in the axial x-direction and contractive normal strains in the transverse directions (due to the Poisson’s effect). The rod does NOT experience ...
