“We took a protein from a snow-making company and modified it,” Paola Camacho, a design student on the grand-prize-winning team from Universidad de Los Andes, told Forbes. “We did research and found that by modifying the protein it would be possible to create ice at high at higher temperatures. Their project, […]
Nacre — the iridescent part of mollusk shells — is a poster child for biologically inspired design. Despite being made of brittle chalk, the intricately layered microstructure of nacre gives it a remarkable ability to resist the spread of cracks, a material property known as toughness. Engineers looking to design tougher […]
