Cornell researchers used X-ray diffraction to study how microscale phenomena such as bending and fragmentation emerge in the nickel-based superalloy IN625 as it is being 3D printed.
Xiangkun (Elvis) Cao, Ph.D. ’21, and Berit H. Goodge, Ph.D. ’22, were selected as 2022 Schmidt Science Fellows. As fellows, they will take on postdoctoral placements focused on collaborative, interdisciplinary research.
Greeshma Gadikota, associate professor of engineering, has gathered a team to help capture carbon dioxide in the concrete-making process as they aim to create low-carbon construction materials from it.
An interdisciplinary collaboration used paleo information and reconstructed weather scenarios to better understand California’s flood and drought risks and how they will be compounded by climate change.
To make textiles more sustainable, a new method allows researchers to break old clothing down chemically and reuse polyester compounds to create fire resistant, anti-bacterial or wrinkle-free coatings that could then be applied to clothes and fabrics.
New research has shown that ultrasmall Cornell Prime Dots, or C’Dots, which are among the nanocarriers for therapeutics once thought to be viable only by injection, have the potential to be administered orally.
Cornell is spearheading the New York Consortium for Space Technology Innovation and Development – a new initiative aimed at bolstering U.S. space technology research and manufacturing by uniting industry, academic and government partners.
More than 120 students took part in the Digital Agriculture Hackathon, sponsored by the Cornell Institute for Digital Agriculture and Entrepreneurship at Cornell.
Cornell researchers unexpectedly discovered the presence of “quantum spin-glass” while conducting research designed to learn more about quantum algorithms and, relatedly, new strategies for error correction in quantum computing.
