There's a method to finite element modeling for materials microarchitecture to make super strong glass. Researchers use complex models to study the breaking point of brittle materials; the secret is ...
Glass has a lot going for it: it's easy to clean and you can see straight through it. The only problem is that it's fragile and brittle, and that means it breaks easily. That's why researchers have ...
Apple just announced the Apple Watch Series 11, which looks similar to its predecessors but is the slimmest watch to date and includes new features like 5G cellular connectivity and stronger glass.

High index lenses are glasses lenses that are thinner and lighter than standard options. They may benefit people with stronger prescriptions who might otherwise have heavier, thicker lenses. Share on ...
Durability is key with DIY glass brick showers. They're heavy blocks in a water-prone area. Our construction expert reveals ...
Glass is one of the most useful materials in our modern world, but being prone to cracking or shattering is a major downside. Scientists at McGill University have developed a new type of glass ...
Alchemists at the University of Maryland have taken time out from turning lead into gold and have instead turned ordinary sheets of wood into transparent material that is nearly as clear as glass, but ...
BERKSHIRE CO, MA (NEWS10)-There’s a lot of conversation about how to ramp up security in the midst of continual mass shootings. The president of a special glass company in Pittsfield, Massachusetts ...
Researchers have created a new kind of glass that, thanks to an intense manufacturing process and a bizarre chemical structure, they say is just about as hard as natural diamonds. “Consequently, our ...
Editor's take: Scientists have devised a new way to make super-strong glass. The process mixes regular oxide glass with aluminosilicate at extremely high temperatures and pressure. The resulting ...
