Programmable material systems are emerging architectural structures but the co-design of structure, material, and external stimuli present grand challenges. A team with Northwestern Engineering’s Wei ...

Scientists studying graphene’s properties are using a new mathematical framework to make extremely accurate characterizations of the two-dimensional material’s shape. Graphene, discovered in 2004, is ...

Combustion engines, propellors, and hydraulic pumps are examples of fluidic devices — instruments that utilize fluids to perform certain functions, such as generating power or transporting water.

Researchers have developed a mathematical framework that can turn any sheet of material into any prescribed shape, inspired by the paper craft termed kirigami (from the Japanese, kiri, meaning to cut ...

Low-code by design is more than architecture; it is a philosophy for the AI era, turning low code into a trusted, enterprise-grade innovation engine.
