Shape memory alloys are exotic materials that can be deformed at room temperature and return to their "remembered," ...

As the consequence of complex interactions between different parts of an organ, shape can be used as a predictor of structural–functional relationships implicated in changing environments. Despite ...

Simulated predicted shape distribution for magic-sized silver clusters (purple insets) assembled at different solvent temperatures. These predictions can guide experiments to target seeds for crystal ...

Direct modelers provide a hands-on way to create and edit solid models. An emerging technology called “direct modeling” provides a new way to interact with solid models. As the approach becomes ...

A team of researchers at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) has applied relatively simple tissue modeling and cell patterning techniques to generate highly precise 3D shapes, including ...

A multi-university research team, including the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, has developed A11yShape, a new tool designed to help blind and low-vision programmers independently create, inspect ...

The electron, against predictions, appears to be perfectly round, raising questions about one of the fundamental building blocks of the universe. An electron's shape refers to that of the cloud of ...
