University at Buffalo (UB) researchers have developed a novel 3D printed water-purifying graphene aerogel that could be scaled for use at large wastewater treatment plants.
Sutures pervade surgeries, but their performance is limited by the mechanical mismatch with tissues and the lack of advanced functionality. Existing modification strategies result in either deterioration of suture’s bulk properties or a weak coating susceptible to rupture or delamination. Inspired by tendon endotenon sheath, we report a versatile strategy to […]
Scientists identify slime mold that saves memories without nervous system
Researchers have identified a single-cell slime mould called Physarum polycephalum that saves memories – although it has no nervous system.
Bearings are common rotational units, but these monocentric units do not realize high bio-imitability in exoskeleton robots. A common way to realize bionic motion is with an n-bar linkage mechanism within bearings, but the resultant joints can become complex. Herein, we propose a joint model based on the anatomy of grasshopper […]
