When it comes to hydrogen compatibility, all rubbers are not created equal. New research hints at pathways to improve the durability of rubber-based materials in hydrogen infrastructure.
Rotational Hammer Riveting, developed by PNNL, joins dissimilar materials quickly without preheating rivets. The friction-based riveting enables use of lightweight magnesium rivets and also works on aluminum and speeds manufacturing.
PNNL’s data-infused approach to electron microscopes’ use in scientific experimentation will help researchers and industry interpret large data streams and drive down costs.
Three recent doctoral graduates are beginning their research careers at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory after completing the WSU-PNNL Distinguished Graduate Research Program this spring.
PNNL combines AI and cloud computing with damage assessment tool to predict path of wildfires and quickly evaluate the impact of natural disasters, giving first responders an upper hand.
Machine learning techniques are accelerating the development of stronger alloys for power plants, which will yield efficiency, cost, and decarbonization benefits.
PNNL’s energy-efficient dehumidifier may reduce energy consumption by up to 50% in residential A/C systems and increase the range of electric vehicles by up to 75%. The system has been licensed to Montana Technologies.
The DOE Early Career Research Program supports exceptional researchers during the crucial early years of their careers and helps advance scientific discovery in fundamental sciences
Risk analysis on the plutonium-fueled power system that supplies electricity to the Mars rover answered the “what if” nuclear safety questions for NASA.
A collaboration among PNNL, Washington State University, and Tsinghua University has led to the discovery of a mechanism behind the decline in performance of an advanced copper-based catalyst.
Johnson is among the PNNL scientists preparing to move into the Energy Sciences Center, the new $90 million, 140,000-square-foot facility that is expected to open in late 2021.
