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

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 ...

Hollow Man turns invisibility into horror, revealing how it strips away accountability and unleashes what society suppresses.

Metamaterials are artificially designed materials that do not occur in nature. They are assembled from individually defined units so that their effective material properties can be enhanced.

Exosomes, secreted by most cells, carry biological information and proteins that serve as noninvasive biomarkers for ...

Researchers at the Shenzhen Institutes of Advanced Technology (SIAT) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, have developed a novel method for efficiently isolating exosomes from undiluted whole blood ...

Owing to the wave nature of light there are many ways that such different waves can interact with each other, but also with materials. Everyone knows about reflecting light with a mirror, which is ...

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

Research led at the University of Michigan modeled how different origami structures made from trapezoidal subunits (i) responded to stresses like ...

Overall behavior of composite materials and metamaterials. The fundamentals of homogenization for elastic composites, variational principles and energy-based bounds, and dynamic homogenization ...
