A great deal of sustainable innovation comes from right here in Oak Ridge, Tennessee.
If only we could get politicians to back science instead of catering to the extractive industries that want to suppress advancements in the name of profits. #ORNL #Science https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/03/260309225217.htm
Scientists at Oak Ridge National Laboratory have created a new aluminum alloy called RidgeAlloy that can turn contaminated car-body scrap into strong structural vehicle parts. Normally, impurities introduced during recycling make this scrap unsuitable for high-performance applications. RidgeAlloy overcomes that challenge, enabling recycled aluminum to meet the strength and durability standards required for modern vehicles. The technology could slash energy use, reduce imports, and unlock a huge new supply of domestic aluminum.
#ORNL Director Stephen Streiffer said the #Lux #supercomputer will deliver about 3X the #AI capacity of current supercomputers.
The second, more advanced computer called #Discovery will be based around AMD's MI430 series of AI chips that are tuned for high-performance #computing. This system will be designed by ORNL, #HewlettPackard & #AMD. Discovery is expected to be delivered in 2028 & be ready for operations in 2029.

The plans call for the first #supercomputer called #Lux to be constructed & come online within the next 6 months. It will be based around AMD's MI355X #ArtificialIntelligence chips, & the design will also include central processors & networking chips made by #AMD. The system is co-developed by AMD, #HewlettPackard Enterprise, #Oracle Cloud Infrastructure & Oak Ridge National Laboratory (#ORNL).

Our recent work, published in JFM, reveals a 52° phase lag between vortex shedding and maximum vortical interaction in turbulent combustors. We show that by disrupting these interactions, we can suppress thermoacoustic instability.

Boiling hot water bubbles up into pools of vibrant teal and blue. The steam rises, burning anyone who gets too close. The water is acidic—sometimes as acidic as stomach acid. Microbes in a hot spring in Yellowstone National Park have evolved to live in such extreme circumstances.
