Structures (or “structs” in C) allow you to group several related variables and treat them as one unit. They are a mechanism for extending the type system of the C language by introducing user-defined ...

A revolution in novel nanoparticles and colloidal building blocks has been enabled by recent breakthroughs in particle synthesis. These new particles are poised to become the ‘atoms’ and ‘molecules’ ...

A new type of "ink" makes it possible to 3D print electrochemically switchable, conducting polymers using a light-based process. Researchers from the universities of Heidelberg and Stuttgart have ...

Metallic three-dimensional lattice structures harbor different mechanical properties. This article considers research published in the journal Materials, that analyzes the energy absorption properties ...

At 10 one-millionths of a meter wide, a single human cell is tiny. But something even smaller exerts an enormous influence on ...
