“#4-D printed thermite could make welding in space and combat zones easier, safer” Neely’s has welded iron (above) and copper with the 4D printed thermite paste. Credit: Vanderbilt University A recent mechanical engineering doctoral graduate has created a material for welding in extreme conditions that could minimize equipment needed and operator hazards. The material—a safe,…
