When people picture a data center, they often imagine something remote: a huge warehouse humming quietly far from the city. New research from NYU Tandon School of Engineering shows that assumption is largely wrong.

Hydrogen is increasingly viewed as a promising energy carrier because it stores large amounts of energy per unit mass and can support low-carbon energy systems when produced through low-emission pathways. Large-scale use, however, depends on storing and transporting it efficiently.

ANSTO researchers have developed a novel wasteform capable of safely immobilizing sulfate-bearing radioactive wastes, addressing a long-standing challenge in radioactive waste management and opening new opportunities for treating similar wastes internationally.

The U.S. Department of Energy is harnessing the artificial intelligence boom in its bid to convert another Cold War-era uranium enrichment site, tapping private equity to fund a $100 billion data center complex that will include its own new natural gas and battery storage power plant in Kentucky.

Using neutrons at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory, researchers from The Ohio State University are studying residual stress caused by friction stir welding (FSW) to reveal how to strengthen armor steel welds, like those used in military vehicles. Their findings were published in the Journal of Materials Processing Technology.
