This graphic shows a strip of superconducting wire with a chain of vortices (red). The green areas show strong superconductivity. Superimposed are two curves showing the resistance of the strip depending on the magnetic field; as the magnetic field increases, the resistance first grows, then drops dramatically.

These ultrananocrystalline diamond-coated pump seals garnered a 2008 R&D 100 award, which recognize the most important inventions in the previous year. They use 20% less energy during pumping.

In Summer 2012, the South Wales Materials Association (SWMA) ran a competition for students aged 18-21 to win a month's paid work placement in 'SPECIFIC' (the Sustainable Product Engineering Centre for Innovative Functional Industrial Coatings), and a cash prize.

 

SPECIFIC is a £20m Innovation and Knowledge Centre, directed by Swansea University’s Head of Materials, Prof David Worsley. The Centre focuses on Materials Science research, and scaling this up for industrial applications.

 

The competition involved writing an essay on how Materials Science influences our daily lives, with the winner selected by SWMA President Dr John Preston, and the Director of the Engineering Doctorate, Dr James Sullivan.

 

The competition attracted a large number of applications, but 'one stood out for its originality and technical content', reported Dr Sullivan. The winning report was written by 2nd year Materials Science and Engineering student, Michael Agyeman.

 

Michael began work at SPECIFIC in early September - his main project was to assess the microstructure of magnesium-based alloys, and design a testing rig which would allow a novel liquid metal treatment to be applied.

 

'I loved getting into the research side of materials. It's much more difficult than I imagined, but very rewarding', said Michael (pictured, with John Preston (left) and Dave Worsley (right)).

 

Prof Dave Worsley was very impressed with Michael’s application and drive – 'he threw himself into this project and really made it his own; we are hoping to publish some of the work Michael has done'.

 

The cheque for £1000 was supplied by the SWMA, and research equipment, supervision and guidance was supplied by Swansea University.

Oak Ridge National Laboratory researchers developed a fiber to adsorb uranium from seawater. Researchers at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory exposed the fibers to Pseudomonas fluorescens and used the Advanced Photon Source at Argonne National Laboratory to create a 3-D X-ray microtomograph to determine that the fiber structure was not damaged by the organism.
