ORNL’s Merlin Theodore appointed to National Science Board

Merlin Theodore is one of eight new board members announced by President Biden; she will join the 25-member board for a six-year term.

A team of ORNL researchers used neutron diffraction experiments to study the 3D-printed ACMZ alloy and observed a phenomenon called “load shuffling” that could inform the design of stronger, better-performing lightweight materials for vehicles. Credit: ORNL, U.S. Dept. of Energy

Scientists use neutrons to discover strengthening behavior in alloys

ORNL researchers have identified a mechanism in a 3D-printed alloy – termed “load shuffling” — that could enable the design of better-performing lightweight materials for vehicles.
