The material could someday be used in flexible semiconductors, tear-resistant textiles, bioengineering scaffolds, and more.

A team of MIT researchers developed a new fabrication method that allowed to make existing materials strong but stretchy.

A new scientific machine learning framework developed by Professors Horacio D. Espinosa, Sridhar Krishnaswamy, and ...

The invention is a metamaterial, which is a material engineered to feature new and unusual properties that depend on the material's physical structure rather than its chemical composition. In this ...

Engineers have fabricated a metamaterial that is not only strong but also stretchy. Their new method could enable stretchable ceramics, glass, and metals, for tear-proof textiles or stretchy ...

But it's exactly what a team of researchers at MIT are claiming their new "strong but stretchy" metamaterial could enable. A ...
