An AI algorithm was taught to produce the lightest and strongest possible geometric structure for a nanomaterial (depending on what it was made of). The result was a carbon nanolattice that is light ...

A new class of engineered particles shaped like office staples can interlock into load-bearing structures without a single drop of adhesive — and then, when subjected to the right vibration, flow ...

Researchers at Tohoku University and the Japan Atomic Energy Agency have developed fundamental experiments and theories to manipulate the geometry of the "electron universe," which describes the ...

A new theory proposes that the universe’s fundamental forces and particle properties may arise from the geometry of hidden extra dimensions. These dimensions could twist and evolve over time, forming ...

Riemannian foliations partition a smooth manifold into a collection of disjoint submanifolds, called leaves, that locally resemble parallel layers. Each leaf inherits a Riemannian metric from the ...

Tue, February 18, 2025 at 2:00 PM UTC While vibranium might not exist outside the realm of superheroes and science fiction, AI just designed an extremely tough material that is impossibly light—and ...
