"We've designed a three-dimensional, thin-walled structure that can be used to make foldable and reprogrammable objects of arbitrary architecture, whose shape, volume and stiffness can be dramatically ...

Harvard researchers have created a 3D programmable mechanical metamaterial that can be programmed to change shape, volume and size on command, making it ideal for building a range of different ...

Three cones have the same volume as one cylinder of the same diameter and height. Remember the volume of a cylinder is \(\pi r^2 h\). The volume of the cone is one third of the volume of the cylinder.

(Nanowerk News) Imagine a house that could fit in a backpack or a wall that could become a window with the flick of a switch. Harvard researchers have designed a new type of foldable material that is ...

Imagine a house that could fit in a backpack or a wall that could become a window with the flick of a switch. Harvard researchers say it may be possible! Scientists at the top U.S. university have ...
