Single string pull turns flat designs into 3D structures for modular space habitats
When a user pulls the string, the structure moves smoothly into its final 3D form. If the user releases the string, the ...
When people are dropped into the most dangerous of conditions – as when disaster strikes, or during exploration of another ...

One pull of a string is all it takes to deploy these complex structures
MIT researchers have developed a new method for designing 3D structures that can be transformed from a flat configuration ...
Inspired by kirigami, a type of Japanese paper art, researchers have created a new material that transforms from a grid into ...
Improvements in three-dimensional (3D) scanning have enabled quick and accurate scanning of 3D objects, including cultural heritage objects, as 3D point cloud data. However, conventional ...
Imagine if you could "print" a tiny skyscraper using DNA instead of steel. That’s what researchers at Columbia and Brookhaven are doing—constructing intricate 3D nanostructures by harnessing the ...
DNA isn't just a long string of genetic code, but an intricate 3D structure folded inside each cell. That means the tools used to study DNA need to be just as sophisticated-able to read not only the ...
In a recent study published in the journal Nature Methods, a group of researchers developed a novel method called Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) High-Order Folding Prediction Plus (RhoFold+). This deep ...
