McGill engineers created graphene oxide origami materials that move, sense motion, and reshape themselves for soft robots.

When people are dropped into the most dangerous of conditions – as when disaster strikes, or during exploration of another planet – they generally have the highest number of needs and the lowest ...

In typical rollable structures, the cross-section is flat in the storage phase so that it can wrap smoothly around a central hub, and transforms into a corrugated cross-section in the deployed phase ...

Over the past decades, a growing number of robotics teams have started developing modular robots inspired by the ancient paper-folding art of origami. More recently, some of these teams started ...

A new 3-D printing technique can create paper-thin "magnetic muscles," which can be applied to origami structures to make them move. By infusing rubber-like elastomers with materials called ...

What can Saturn’s largest moon, Titan, teach scientists about the chemistry of life? This is what a recent study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences hopes to address as a ...

What began as an art of folding paper is now reshaping technology. This film explores how origami is transforming modern engineering. Missing this one pay date may be too much for Trump, Congress to ...

FULLY IN THE GREEN. BACK TO YOU. AARON. THANK YOU. THIS MORNING CONTAINMENT IS GROWING ON THE TCU SEPTEMBER LIGHTNING COMPLEX. AND EVACUATION ORDERS ARE DROPPING. CREWS HAVE BEEN WORKING AROUND THE ...

Researchers develop hybrid kiri-origami structures that enable the fabrication of high-performance stretchable electronics using non-stretchable materials. (Nanowerk News) Stretchable electronics are ...

Kiri-origami structures combine the benefits of both origami and kirigami, incorporating their advantages while canceling their disadvantages, enabling the development of high-performance, stretchable ...

A former garage at the famous Westside Pavilion shopping center has given way to new housing. Struggling indoor malls are being repurposed as shopping habits change. UCLA is also building a research ...
