Researchers unveil a secret of stronger metal - EurekAlert

MIT researchers determined exactly what happens as crystal grains in metals form during an extreme deformation process, at the tiniest scales, down to a few nanometers across. The findings could lead to better, more consistent properties in metals, such as ha…
