A Mobius strip. cosma/shutterstock.com. You have most likely encountered one-sided objects hundreds of times in your daily life – like the universal symbol for recycling, found printed on the ...

This mathematical object is called a Mobius strip. It has fascinated environmentalists, artists, engineers, mathematicians and many others ever since its discovery in 1858 by August Möbius, a ...

One-sided objects are surprisingly common – and misunderstood. What are they, and how have they helped us understand the world?

The twisted, single-sided loop known as a Möbius band, when made from a stiff material such as paper, takes on a complicated shape that researchers have finally calculated.

They suggested that for a strip with a width of 1 centimeter (0.39 inches), the length had to be at least the square root of 3 centimeters (about 1.73 centimeters or 0.68 inches).

In 1977, two mathematicians created a conjecture that proposed the minimum size a paper strip needed to be in order to form an embedded strip. Although they proposed an aspect ration of 1.73 (or ...

But if you cut the rubber band crosswise, twist one end and glue it back together, you get a Möbius strip, which has only one face (SN: 7/24/07).

Faith and Mobius strips seem to be on similar ground. We don’t always grasp the intricacies of religious theory and its applications, but we do know when Divine moments occur in our lives.

Twist a two-dimensional strip of paper then tape its ends together and it transforms into a one-sided loop. It’s not magic; it’s a Möbius strip. These mathematical structures show up ...

We have always been able to make Möbius strips out of paper, but now it is possible to make tiny versions of these unusual geometric objects using the molecular building blocks of a carbon nanotube ...

Google just revealed its Gboard double-sided keyboard, which is a peripheral shaped like a mobius strip. The keyboard with a twist ... $199.99 CAD. $199.99 CAD: $239.99 CAD: Buy. £152.94. £151. ...

This Möbius gear is absolutely mind-bending, and almost impossible to describe. It’s a toothed gear that only has one side, made by Berkeley robotics student Aaron Hoover using various 3-D ...
