Unraveling threads of bizarre hagfish's explosive slime Posted: 15 Jan 2019 05:00 PM PST Biologists have modeled the hagfish's gag-inducing defense mechanism mathematically. |
Breakthrough in ice-repelling materials Posted: 15 Jan 2019 01:23 PM PST Icy weather is blamed for multibillion dollar losses every year in the United States, including delays and damage related to air travel, infrastructure and power generation and transmission facilities. Now researchers have reported creating a durable silicone polymer coating capable of repelling ice from any surface. |
A microbial hot spring in your basement Posted: 15 Jan 2019 01:23 PM PST Microbes that thrive in some of the most extreme places on Earth have discovered another cozy place to live -- inside homes across the United States. |
Engineers 3D print smart objects with 'embodied logic' Posted: 15 Jan 2019 11:41 AM PST Using stimuli-responsive materials and geometric principles, engineers have designed structures that have 'embodied logic.' Through their physical and chemical makeup alone, they are able to determine which of multiple possible responses to make in response to their environment. |
Light up logic: Engineers perform computational logic with light Posted: 15 Jan 2019 09:11 AM PST For the first time, researchers performed logic operations -- the basis of computation -- with a chemical device using electric fields and ultraviolet light. The device and the pioneering methods used open up research possibilities including low-power, high-performance computer chips. |
