The material could someday be used in flexible semiconductors, tear-resistant textiles, bioengineering scaffolds, and more.

A team of MIT researchers developed a new fabrication method that allowed to make existing materials strong but stretchy.

Researchers at IIT Guwahati studied the thermal performance of 3D-printed lattice-patterned concrete walls in buildings. The ...

Engineers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have created a flexible and durable metamaterial made of acrylic plastic.

Engineers have fabricated a metamaterial that is not only strong but also stretchy. Their new method could enable stretchable ceramics, glass, and metals, for tear-proof textiles or stretchy ...

Engineers developed a technique to grow and peel ultrathin 'skins' of electronic material that could be used in applications such as night-vision eyewear and autonomous driving in foggy conditions.

Typically, these structures combine to enable properties that are usually compatible, including strength combined with ...

MIT engineers have developed a new metamaterial that is both strong and stretchy, overcoming the usual trade-off between ...

In metamaterials design, the name of the game has long been "stronger is better." Metamaterials are synthetic materials with ...

In order to meet the needs of knee joint pressure monitoring, a fiber grating pressure sensor based on flexible composite structure package is developed. First, the physiological structure of the knee ...
