Hidden inside every organ, microscopic fibers form a scaffolding that quietly shapes how we move, think, and heal. For the ...

Complex fluids, such as polymer melts and concentrated suspensions, are foundational materials for industrial products, ...

The structure of semi-crystalline polymers largely depends on how strongly their molecular chains are entangled. Following numerous experiments, researchers developed a new model to predict the ...

Manufacturing complex fluids industrially often involves mechanical forces that introduce internal stress and damage ...

The viscosity of colloidal suspensions varies with shear rate, an important effect encountered in many natural and industrial processes. Although this non-Newtonian behavior is believed to arise from ...

In terms of the length scale of structural features, material structure can be classified into macroscopic, mesoscopic, and microscopic structures. And the microscopic structure of materials can be ...

This process resulted in structure measuring just 6 microns wide by 10 microns long, likely making it the smallest house – or more accurately a model of a house – ever made. By contrast, a microscopic ...

GUANGZHOU, Nov. 16 (Xinhua) -- China's first high-energy direct-geometry inelastic neutron scattering time-of-flight spectrometer, an instrument for observing the structure and dynamic properties of ...

A team of US-based scientists has recently demonstrated the cryo-electron microscopic structure and antigenicity of the attachment glycoprotein of the Nipah virus. The study is published in the ...

At the molecular level, glass looks like a liquid. But an artificial neural network has picked up on hidden structure in its molecules that may explain why glass is rigid like a solid. Most materials ...
