A rapidly expanding area of research in materials science involves the development of routes to complex 3D structures with feature sizes in the mesoscopic range (that is, between tens of nanometres ...

Additive manufacturing, which encompasses a broad range of light- and ink-based printing techniques that allow the digital design and fabrication of three-dimensional (3D) objects, is transforming the ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. — It looks like science fiction: A machine dips into a shallow vat of translucent yellow goo and pulls out what becomes a life-sized hand. But the seven-second video, which is sped-up ...

A team guided by researchers from the State Key Laboratory of Fluid Power and Mechatronic Systems deposited various biomaterials concurrently and accurately into the yielded region of the embedding ...

3D printing creates solid objects from the additive process of layering plastics, metal, wood, synthetic fibers, and more. You can 3D-print your own designs using a ...

A team of researchers at the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) in South Korea has developed a novel dry transfer printing method for flexible electronic devices. This breakthrough enables the transfer ...

Welding is typically used to join two parts together, whether those parts be metal or plastic. There are various styles of welding, but we won’t go into those here. Casting is the act of pouring a ...
