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 ...

In metamaterials design, the name of the game has long been "stronger is better." Metamaterials are synthetic materials with ...

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

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

In metamaterials design, the name of the game has long been “stronger is better.” Metamaterials are synthetic materials with microscopic structures that give the overall material exceptional ...

In an experiment reminiscent of the "Transformers" movie franchise, engineers at Princeton University have created a type of ...

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 ...

Mechanical metamaterials research demands interdisciplinary collaboration and innovation. (Nanowerk News) Metamaterials are artificially-structured materials with extraordinary properties not easily ...
