Professor Yuntian Zhu, a matierals scientist at North Carolina State University, was included in a project of a stronger, yet lighter steel. They created nanostructures, which can be used on many different metals, to help create the Nano-Architectured Aluminum. Professor Zhu had explained how the aluminum alloys, that when combined to form hierarchical structure to many high levels [...]
