Diverging and converging patterns forming on the surface of solidifying liquid metals resemble plotlines in a complex historical novel, in a new international study. The cyclic patterns observed are ...
A simple, cheap, and highly effective approach to achieve large tuning range of optical transmittance through harnessing surface wrinkling–cracking patterns on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) films. The ...
The process of wrinkle formation is familiar to anyone who has ever sat in a bathtub a little too long. But exactly why layered materials sometimes form one kind of wrinkly pattern or another—or even ...
Scientists at the University of Nottingham have discovered how specific surface patterns on plastics used for medical devices can drastically reduce the ability of bacteria to attach and multiply, ...
