In 2022 the City of Stuttgart announced that the Rosensteinbrücke, a busy bridge for local traffic across the Neckar River, had become structurally unsound. For safety reasons it was permanently closed to streetcars, buses, and automobiles, and in the coming years it is scheduled to be replaced. The closure has caused disruptions, but at the same time many argue that its upcoming redesign could offer opportunities to improve the site and its surrounding neighborhood. Potential advantages include making Stuttgart’s transportation infrastructure more sustainable and supporting ..read more

New research by the University of Liverpool could signal a step change in the quest to design the new materials needed to meet the challenge of net zero and a sustainable future.
Published in the journal Nature, the Liverpool researchers have shown that a mathematical algorithm can guarantee to predict the structure of any material just based on knowledge of the atoms that make it up.
Developed by an interdisciplinary team of researchers from the University of Liverpool’s Departments of Chemistry and Computer Science, the algorithm systematically eva ..read more
