CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machining has revolutionized the manufacturing world, enabling the production of highly precise and complex parts for a wide range of industries. While the core focus ...

The vital role of low surface energy and high surface roughness of hierarchical and re-entrant structures in achieving a steady Cassie–Baxter state that has a low contact area between the solid ...

Eclectic interiors celebrate creativity by blending diverse eras, styles, and materials. Intentional juxtapositions create harmonious spaces with contrasting aesthetics, textures, and bold colours.

it could inform the engineering of materials for a wide range of purposes, ranging from soft robots to consumer products. "Moving forward, we plan to further investigate how surface roughness ...

The organic material found in a few areas on the surface of dwarf planet Ceres is probably of exogenic origin. Impacting asteroids from the outer asteroid belt may have brought it with them.

Researchers at Caltech, led by Professor Chiara Daraio, have developed an intriguing new type of material that behaves like both a solid and a liquid, depending on the type of stress applied. This ...
