It’s the nature of the automotive industry to be constantly evolving, developing and improving. The need for better efficiency, cleaner outputs and ways to conserve energy weigh heavy above our heads, but where do nanomaterials play into this? Nanomaterials aren’t newcomers in the automotive universe, however, the development in how they are used is ongoing, with researchers finding more and more new advantages in using them.
In the last episode of the series, we talk to series regulars Aphrodite and Adam to look back and reflect on the podcasts so far.
The Transition Group are a collective of artists who met at university and have since formed strong bonds. This week, we are joined by four of the group’s artists to discuss their work, the materials they use, and why they decided to stay together as The Transition Group.
Nickel is a versatile metal that is ferromagnetic, corrosion resistant, and even found in cans of baked beans! While we’ve already covered the metal form in our blog (you can catch up here), this article is going to be taking a look at element symbol Ni, atomic number 28’s relative, Nickel Foam. The metal has many desirable characteristics, which are translated across to the foam, making it a solid choice for a number of applications.
Welcome to this week’s Throwback Thursday! Manufacturing innovation is a big part of the foundation of our modern world, and it is something that has continued to accelerate at a rapid pace. This pace has made it somewhat hard to comprehend a time before streetlights, billboards, and the luxuries we surround ourselves with daily.
Changing the way we think about the world and the way we protect it is more important than ever. The materials we use are arguably the foundations of a greener and healthier world; from clothing materials to scientific and architectural materials, each is as important as the other. Goodfellow are proud supporters of the efforts contributing towards a greener planet.
On this week’s Throwback Thursday, we’re looking at the very first torpedo, the range weapon used in the defence sector. The first concept of a torpedo came about many centuries before it actually came to be a working device.
We discuss our artistic sides and the relationship between Goodfellow and the art world.
