In this podcast episode, MRS Bulletin’s Laura Leay interviews Christos Athanasiou from the Georgia Institute of Technology about their approach to the recycling problem from a mechanics-materials perspective. Current recycling approaches can lead to a product with variable properties, which is undesirable. Through a bio-inspired design, Athanasiou’s group built a structure similar to bricks and mortar where the bricks, measuring a few centimeters across, are made from recycled plastic and hel...

Episode 4: Researchers pinpoint AI/ML training set to achieve accurate predictions
In this podcast episode, MRS Bulletin’s Sophia Chen interviews Bowen Deng, a graduate student in Gerbrand Ceder’s group at the University of California, Berkeley, about their work on increasing the accuracy of artificial intelligence/machine learning materials prediction models. The use of computer simulations to predict the interaction between atoms in a given molecule is being replaced by machine learning. Researchers describe the atoms’ collective interactions as a quantity of energy, wher...
