A new way to accurately predict how materials respond to pulsed laser heating, even when the laser's behavior is a bit unpredictable, allowing engineers to optimise laser parameters for applications, such as cutting, welding, drilling, and surface treatment.
Researchers from BITS-Pilani, Hyderabad, have developed a safer, fluoride-free synthesis method for metal-organic frameworks that significantly boosts their capacity to capture greenhouse gases and store clean fuels at room temperature.
