Nano-architected materials are made of tiny building blocks or repeating units measuring a few hundred nanometres in size — ...

Experiments have yielded a fascinating new type of matter, neither granular nor crystalline, that responds to some stresses as a fluid would and to others like a solid. The new material could have ...

Microsoft researchers report that when the system was given over 608,000 stable materials from databases, it was able to ...

Analysis - Scientists have long puzzled over how pterosaurs became the first vertebrates to master flight. Some pterosaur species, such as the Quetzalcoatlus were the largest known animals to ever ...

VortexLattice is a comprehensive pure-Julia implementation of the vortex lattice method for both steady and unsteady flow conditions. It is designed to be fast, accurate (within theoretical ...

The majority of the transmission infrastructure in the U.S. was built before 1960s and continues to support the electrical ...

Most importantly, the resulting structure often has properties that the underlying lattice unit doesn't possess. For example, individual bone cells or coral polyp skeletons aren't very strong ...

a significant advancement as it allows for the simulation of structures with arbitrary-range coupling. Remarkably, their method enabled coupling up to eight and nine times the lattice constant ...
