PNNL researchers have developed a new, physics-informed machine learning model that accurately predicts how heat accumulates and dissipates during friction stir processing.
An initiative from Washington State University and Snohomish County leaders is aiming to make Paine Field a nexus for testing and improving sustainable aviation fuels made from non-petroleum materials.
Leaders from the DOE Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy visited PNNL October 19–20 for a firsthand look at capabilities and research progress.
Scientists at PNNL were awarded nearly $12 million to better understand pathogens, how they spread, and how to prepare the nation against future outbreaks.
A PNNL innovation uses steam to recover heat from the high-temperature reactor effluent in the HTL process, substantially reducing the propensity for fouling and potentially reducing costs.
PNNL welcomes new joint appointments to expand the research productivity and scientific impact of both PNNL and the university partners, broadening the base of expertise at each institution and helping to build interdisciplinary teams.
A PNNL-developed computational framework accurately predicts the thermomechanical history and microstructure evolution of materials designed using solid phase processing, allowing scientists to custom design metals with desired properties.
The work by the team at PNNL takes a critical step in leveraging ML to accelerate advanced manufacturing R&D, specifically for manufacturing techniques without access to efficient, first-principles simulations.
