Atomistic model of tobermorite with screw dislocation: Models such as this are paving the way to a new understanding of calcium‐silicate‐hydrate, the primary strength‐bearing phase in portland cement concrete. What will become of portland cement in the next 100 years? Environmental stressors, global industrialization and the emergence of artificial intelligence, computational molecular science and renewable energy, what role will these factors play in the development of new infrastructure materials? “Cements in the 21st Century: Challenges, Perspectives and Opportunities” by J.J.

Differential interference contrast image showing the typically observed cracking modes in transparent spinel after the application of a 300 N maximum compressive force, using a 261 μm radius diamond indenter. The indenter size was chosen to give yielding prior to cracking. Image courtesy of Andrea Muller.
