Inside your body, cell movement plays a crucial role in many significant biological processes, including wound healing, immune responses and the potential spread of cancer.
An international team led by Professor Yilin Wu, Associate Professor of the Department of 麻豆淫院ics at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) has made a novel conceptual advance in the field of active matter science. The ...
Welcome to the amazing world of soft substrates. These materials are made of silicon gels and have the same texture as panna cotta鈥攂ut without the delicious flavor. They are used in a range of applications, especially in ...
It can be observed every time you take a shower: Small droplets of water join together to form larger and larger drops鈥攗ntil they are so heavy that they run down the wall. Scientists call this daily-life phenomenon coalescence鈥攚hich ...
It is presently challenging to determine the stability of viscoelastic structures since seemingly stable conformations may gradually creep (plastic deformation of a material under stress as a function of time) until their ...
Artificial surfaces that can repel liquids have attracted significant attention across scientific and industrial platforms to create functional topological features. But the role of the underlying structures that are in contact ...
A novel three-dimensional (3-D) touchless interactive display can change color based on the distance of the user's finger from the screen by detecting subtle shifts in ambient relative humidity, according to a new study. ...
A team of researchers at Lyell Centre in Edinburgh, has developed a way to use math formulas to help predict when an earthquake is likely to happen. In their paper published in Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, ...
Researchers at the Department of Biomechanical Engineering of Delft University of Technology have created a new class of metamaterials that can dynamically switch their mechanical behavior. It may form the basis for practical ...
Functionally graded materials (FGM) allow diverse applications in multidisciplinary fields from biomedicine to architecture. However, their fabrication can be tedious relative to gradient continuity, interfacial bending and ...
