See how an autonomous robot created a shock-absorbing shape no human ever could -- and what it means for designing safer helmets, packaging, car bumpers, and more. Inside a lab in Boston University's ...

The research represents a major step forward in revealing how the three dimensional form of DNA shapes the way human biology functions. In a major step toward understanding how the physical form of ...

As it does so, a 3D printer system prints a rigid back structure to the blanket array membrane. As it does so, the hard UV radiation of space rapidly cures the resin, making it hard. This means a ...

The vertical design and smart tracking functions of the towers offer big improvements over flat panel arrays. Currently, most solar farms consist of flat panels laid out across the ground or on ...

Decades of research has viewed DNA as a sequence-based instruction manual; yet every cell in the body shares the same genes – so where is the language that writes the memory of cell identities?

Can you drill a hole in a cube that an identical cube could fall through? Prince Rupert of the Rhine first asked this question in the 17th century, and he soon found out the answer is yes. One can ...

After more than three centuries, a geometry problem that originated with a royal bet has been solved. Imagine you’re holding two equal-size dice. Is it possible to bore a tunnel through one die that’s ...

Researchers built a chip-sized processor and 3D-printed copper antenna arrays that could enable flexible, wearable wireless systems for auto, aviation, and space. (Nanowerk News) Washington State ...
