Mechanical Engineering Assistant Professor Ling Li is studying the knobby sea star to discover the key to creating strong, lightweight materials. The sea star has a internal lattice structure which is highly organized, which is different from previous model organisms. This porous lattice structure helps make the sea star lightweight but […]
Researchers created a 3D-printable mask design modeled after animal noses that are more breathable. They mimicked the winding pathways that air takes in animal noses, which not only increases the surface area over which pathogens can be filtered out, but also prevents a drop in air pressure, which makes the masks […]
Geotechnical engineer and assistant professor Idil Akin from Washington State University became fascinated with how kangaroo rats can build burrows which withstand harsh climates for generations. How, with such a simple material like soil, could they make such durable structures that could withstand dry climates, humidity fluctuations, […]
