Metamaterials—artificially made materials with properties that aren't found in the natural world—are poised to transform ...

Miles Wu, 14, won a $25,000 award for his research project combining origami and physics. He measured the weight that Miura-ori origami patterns can hold across various benchmarks. Wu said the pattern ...

The ‘Michelangelo Dome’ is designed to protect critical European infrastructure against evolving security threats, including hypersonic missiles and drone swarms. Italian defence company Leonardo has ...

Engineers are using origami-inspired folding patterns to create deployable structures that shrink down flat and then expand into functional shapes in space, architecture and robotics. Trump’s shutdown ...

The amplituhedron is a geometric shape with an almost mystical quality: Compute its volume, and you get the answer to a central calculation in physics about how particles interact. Now, a young ...

Physicists have directly observed and controlled a rare double-dome pattern of superconductivity in twisted trilayer graphene, shedding light on how exotic quantum states emerge and interact in ...

Superconductivity is a phenomenon where certain materials can conduct electricity with zero resistance. Obviously, this has enormous technological advantages, which makes superconductivity one of the ...

Off the corner of Sunset and Vine in Hollywood, a movie theater that was once the film industry’s favorite gathering spot remains in a state of limbo. The Cinerama Dome opened in 1963 and later became ...

Researchers have folded their way into a groundbreaking new family of origami patterns. Dubbed bloom patterns, because they resemble flowers as they unfold, the new class of origami shapes holds great ...
