Insights into Spallation Mechanisms of Thermal Protection System Materials from Mass Spectrometry and HyMETS TestingAn effort was undertaken to investigate the mechanisms responsible for internal pressure build up within thermal protection system (TPS) materials subjected to high-enthalpy environments. Understanding how gases evolve, migrate, and interact with the microstructure of a TPS is essential for predicting degradation and failure modes such as spallation. To this end, complementary experimental approaches were […]

Scaling rules for metamaterials promise better implants and safer devicesBerlin, Germany (SPX) Feb 04, 2026 Metamaterials are engineered composites whose internal architecture, rather than their base substances, governs how they respond to forces and deformation. In these systems, repeating building blocks known as unit cells are arranged in regular patterns, and their size, shape, and connectivity determine properties such as stiffness, strength, and energy absorption. Researchers from the University

Electron ordering mapped in quantum material with cryogenic 4D-STEMTokyo, Japan (SPX) Jan 20, 2026 Electronic order in quantum materials often arises through intricate, non-uniform patterns that shift across space. A well-known example is the charge density wave (CDW), an ordered electronic state that forms periodic patterns at low temperatures. Although CDWs have been studied for decades, directly observing how their strength and spatial coherence evolve through a phase transition has remain

Material Compatibility of Common Aerospace Metals in MMH/MON-3This article is from the 2024 Technical Update. The NESC evaluated material compatibility of some common aerospace metals in monomethylhydrazine (MMH) and nitrogen tetroxide (MON-3). Previous work had identified a lack of quantitative compatibility data for nickel alloy 718, 300 series stainless steel, and titanium Ti-6Al-4V in MMH and MON-3 to support the use of […]
Show HN: SubSmith – Turn your own videos into language-learning materialIMAGE

Show HN: SubSmith – Turn your own videos into language-learning materialI've been learning Japanese for a few years and kept running into a similar problem. I'd find a video I wanted to learn from, hear a useful sentence, and then realise that turning that sentence into something I could study later was both time consuming and draining at times.I would end up jumping between a video player, subtitles/transcription, a dictionary, screenshots, audio clips and Anki. So I built SubSmith to bring that workflow together.You can drop a video or audio file into it, generate a transcript locally and then use the transcript alongside the media to:* look up words and sentences * replay individual lines * edit the transcript * save useful sentences with their original context/audio * export them as Anki cardsThe important part for me is that it works with your own media. It isn't tied to a particular streaming service or library, so I can use the random anime episode, podcast, lecture, etc. that I'm actually interested in studying.It's an offline-first desktop app, an
