A stapler that slides towards your hand before you reach for it. A lamp that tilts forward when you start to read. A chair ...

The two toothed blades slide against each other but only cut materials below a certain strength threshold. This natural ...

The review briefly introduces the principle, material selection criteria, and development of the thermal drawing process. Based on different stimuli, the review comprehensively summarizes the latest ...

Abstract: Biocompatible soft robotics is a revolutionizing field of biomedical engineering that enables the development of devices which closely interact with the human body. This review examines the ...

Whether it's a job or being with friends, big words aren't always meant to be used in everyday conversation. Even if smart people can throw in complex words to show off their intellect, it's not ...

The global Self-Sensing Nanocomposites Market is poised for a decade of rapid growth, expected to expand from USD 574 million in 2025 to USD 2,282.1 million by 2035, at a robust CAGR of 14.8%, ...

Responsive materials that morph and adapt like biological systems are non-trivial to design and manufacture. Researchers developed a co-design framework that unites AI, physics, and 3D printing into ...

Bloom patterns could be useful, as engineers build folding structures to send to outer space. They’re also very pretty. Researchers have now found a new class of origami that they call bloom patterns, ...

ABSTRACT: This paper presents a detailed investigation into piezoelectric energy harvesting for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) through advanced computational modeling and simulation. The study ...

Abstract: Adopting smart materials and structures for locomotion could minimize the body size of pipeline robots, thereby enhancing their coverage, especially in long-distance and small-diameter ...
