Single string pull turns flat designs into 3D structures for modular space habitats
When a user pulls the string, the structure moves smoothly into its final 3D form. If the user releases the string, the ...

One pull of a string is all it takes to deploy these complex structures
MIT researchers have developed a new method for designing 3D structures that can be transformed from a flat configuration ...
Scientists at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) have devised two mathematical tools considered to be a major contribution to the optimal design of a new generation of deformable bridges, ...
If your social life is anything like mine, you have probably spent a few Saturday nights rubbing saliva between your thumb and forefinger and watching a beaded liquid string form as you slowly pulled ...
Differential cohomology has emerged as a pivotal tool in modern mathematical physics, providing a refined framework that unites topological invariants with differential geometric data. In the realm of ...
Last Friday, I attended a concert by the Cypress String Quartet, the quartet-in-residence at San Jose State University. The last half of the concert was the San Jose premiere of composer Daniel Asia’s ...
Researchers have developed a method for optimizing the initial tension of strings in tensegrity structures as well as a second technique to maximize the strength and minimize the weight of the rods ...
