A gray powder that looks like ash can become something closer to stone when hit with the right beam of light. Engineers have ...

No "sticky ends"? No problem. A new study by NYU chemists finds that DNA tiles can assemble into 3D structures without the ...

Islam Mantawy advances additive manufacturing and 3D printing to create sustainable, resilient concrete and metal structures for future hazards.

Researchers recently shared details on creating foldable, self-locking structures by using multi-material 3D printing. These origami-inspired designs can transition between flat and three-dimensional ...

Researchers have developed a new two-photon polymerization technique that uses two lasers to 3D print complex high-resolution structures. The advance could make this 3D printing process less expensive ...

Launching large, rigid satellite dishes into orbit is an expensive and energy-hungry task. But what if those massive structures could start out flat—and then unfold or “grow” into their curved shapes ...

Chemists have found a new way to determine 3D genome structures, using generative AI, that can predict thousands of genome structures in minutes, making it much speedier than existing methods for ...

Existing three-dimensional (3D) neuronal culture technology has limitations in brain research due to the difficulty of precisely replicating the brain's complex multilayered structure and the lack of ...

While 3D printing is often touted as a way to make housing more affordable, its current costs tell a different story. However ...

In the vast reaches of the semiconductor cosmos, a silent menace lurks—one that can obliterate years of design work in a ...
