Biomaterials with extraordinary properties, such as spider silk, have so far been known primarily from animals. Researchers ...
When viruses travel through the air in tiny droplets, they can quickly start to dry out. Yet many viruses remain infectious ...
Toughening has always been an important research direction of structure ceramics. The addition of secondary phases to the ceramic matrix to prepare composite ceramics is an effective toughening ...
Water undergoes structural changes in the thin layer surrounding hydrophobic molecules, researchers at Purdue University report (Nature, DOI: 10.1038/nature11570). These previously predicted, but ...
Engineers have long taken cues from nature where, over millions of years, the highest performing designs have risen to the top. Directly mimicking nature’s structures with artificial materials, an ...
