The Big Data Science Center at SSRF, Zhangjiang Lab led by Prof. Alessandro Sepe has published on the international high-impact peer-reviewed scientific journal Small a timely and comprehensive Review on the state-of-the-art of the Synchrotron Big Data Science.

A wide variety of industrial applications require materials with high strength and ductility. Unfortunately, the strategies for increasing material strength, such as processing to create line defects (dislocations), tend to decrease ductility. We developed a strategy to circumvent this in inexpensive, medium Mn steel. Cold rolling followed by low-temperature tempering developed steel with metastable austenite grains embedded in a highly dislocated martensite matrix.
