Taking the strain of silicon
28 November, 2008University of Wisconsin-Madison engineers and physicists have developed a method of measuring how strain affects thin films of silicon that could lay the foundation for faster flexible electronics.
Move toward vehicles that morph
10 May, 2006MIT engineers report they may have found a way for structures – and materials – to move like a bird, adjusting its wings to catch every current of air, essentially morphing from one shape into another.
