- Bioinspired Materials Can Take a Punch | NIST
The mantis shrimp packs a powerful punch thanks partly to unique structures in its exoskeleton NIST researchers have fabricated synthetic versions of these structures and tested their impact resistance by blasting them with microprojectiles These bioinspired structures can be used to create new, impact-resistant materials for aerospace, defense, sports and more
- Materials | NIST
Plastics, carbon nanotubes, high-strength alloys, artificial bone and joint replacements are just some of the emerging materials for which NIST develops testbeds, defines benchmarks, and develops formability measurements and models
- Standard Reference Materials | NIST
NIST supports accurate and compatible measurements by certifying and providing over 1200 Standard Reference Materials® with well-characterized composition or properties, or both
- Materials Data Repository | NIST
Materials Data Repository Summary The NIST Materials Data Repository is open to the research community interested in developing best practices in the management of materials data We are currently looking into use cases for expansion of the site including, but not limited to, partnerships with other projects focusing on discoverability
- Materials | NIST
The Materials SRDs are sorted by SRD number (below) and by subtopic
- Materials Data Resources | NIST
Materials Resource Registry allows for the registration of materials resources, bridging the gap between existing resources, software and repositories and end users
- Materials Modeling Software and Tools | NIST
Materials Data Curation System provides a means for capturing, sharing
- Materials characterization | NIST
Scientists develop new impact-resistant material based on the exoskeleton of the mantis shrimp
