Self-healing materials can autonomously repair damage and make bridges, roads, and aircraft more durable and sustainable.

Recent breakthroughs in scientific research have opened up a fascinating world where materials can “heal” themselves. A pioneering group of scientists has successfully developed a metal with ...

The researchers estimate their self-healing strategy can extend the lifetime of conventional fibre-reinforced composite materials by centuries compared to the current decades-long design-life. “This ...

A couple of years ago, collaborative research courtesy of experts at Harvard, MIT, and Swiss labs revealed something extraordinary. They found that the concrete used by Romans had self-healing ...

We've all seen the movies: robots that look and behave like humans are among us, and chaos ensues. Most of the time, it's some sort of conflict between the two species, whether a full-fledged war or ...
