The VULCAN project aims to revolutionize material science by creating self-powered materials that can dynamically reconfigure and repair themselves. It utilizes active agents, such as swimming bacteria, to assemble complex structures that traditional thermal treatments cannot achieve, with potential applications in bio…
Vulcan, the Roman god of blacksmithing, was revered in Europe since the Iron Age (1200-500 BC) for a powerful skill: controlling the macroscopic properties of metals (strength, ductility, toughness).
To this day, thermal treatments such as annealing - cycles of high temperatures, alternated with slow cooling - remain an essential tool of material science.
However, Vulcans traditional powers forge monolithic, static, and passive materials, and are laughably blunt instruments when compared to livi…
