Magnetic composite with stiffness control allows programmable 3D shape shifting for use in soft robots, tactile interfaces, and reconfigurable displays. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Cephalopods such as ...

From towering trees to delicate flowers, complex plant shapes are sculpted with remarkable ... of stem cells and developed into a complex 3D structure. Combining molecular biology and biophysics ...

The net of a 3D shape is what it looks like if it is opened out flat. There are many types of nets for the different 3D shapes. A net is made from polygons that can be folded and joined ...

One layer at a time, the laser melts the powder into a solid shape. 3D printing creates shapes that would be impossible with any other method. For example, in 2015 GE designed fuel nozzles for ...

Faces - A face is a flat surface on a 3D shape. For example a cube has 6 faces. Edges - An edge is where two faces meet. For example a cube has 12 edges. Vertices - A vertex is a corner where ...

Using heat-activated nitinol metal, researchers have devised a reversible, shape-shifting, conical spiral antenna that needs no discrete external actuator. How a special nitinol compound and 3D ...

The new station’s components were 3D-printed elsewhere and assembled on site last month, in what the railway’s operators say is a world first. It may look more like a shelter than a station ...

"We are all embedded in an environment, and features of that environment such as our relationships, home life, neighborhood, or material circumstances can shape how our brains and bodies grow ...

Three-dimensional printing creates shapes that would be impossible with any other method. For example, in 2015 GE designed fuel nozzles for airplane engines that could only be made with 3D metal ...

Meta includes the Quest TV app for browsing videos, including content in 360 and 3D. You can watch concerts, comedy shows, documentaries, and more for free with Quest TV. You’ll need to sign ...

Abstract: Point cloud classification, crucial for discriminative 3D shape analysis, has witnessed significant progress through the application of deep learning. A significant research focus has been ...
