Princeton University researchers have developed a mathematical framework linking origami folding principles with tensegrity structures, enabling the creation of irregular yet mechanically reliable ...
Termite mounds are remarkable structures that regulate temperature, balance airflow, and maintain structural stability in ...
A study published in Nature Communications presents a way to create deployable structures that transform from compact folded states into expansive configurations with perfectly smooth surfaces.
DNA origami and beyond. A) DNA octahedron that inspired development of DNA origami. B) 2D DNA origami (smiley face serves as an example). C) Hollow 3D DNA origami shapes that are folded from 2D ...
