Concrete's strength and structural integrity come not only in its material properties, but also from how it's molded during construction. An architecture student has devised a clever way to build ...

Thom Browne loves building fantastical worlds for his fashion shows, and his fall/winter 2025 collection was no exception.

Foldable origami with uniform thickness to create load-bearing structures From left, Evgueni Filipov, an associate professor in both Civil and Environmental Engineering and Mechanical Engineering ...

“To me, what’s most special about DNA origami is that you have an excess of building blocks that do absolutely nothing except when they see a copy of this master controller scaffold strand,” said Shih ...

Using DNA origami, the team designed 2D triangle-shaped building blocks that snap together, edge to edge, like puzzle pieces. Then, using cryo-electron microscopy (cryoEM), the researchers confirmed ...

In a first step scientists form V-shaped building blocks using DNA-origami techniques. Determined by the opening angle a defined number of building blocks self-assemble into a gearwheel. In a third ...
