Engineering Atoms

At the Cambridge Rolls Royce DTC, we seek to investigate and understand how the arrangement of atoms (the very building block of nature) effects the large scale physical properties of a material. By engineering the atomic arrangements by varying position, size and type of atom, we can cause radical changes in the properties of the metal alloys. This understanding allows to to design new materials that are necessary for the future of the aeronautical industry. This channel should explain some of the science behind what we do and how we carry out our research.
