McGill University researchers have expanded the capabilities of kirigami-inspired metamaterials to achieve anisotropic ...

Finding new angles on an old artform, McGill researchers have increased the number of stable shapes that kirigami-based ...

Coarse-grained models are computational models that mimic the behaviour of a complex system by breaking it down into simpler sub-components. The extent to which the system is broken down reflects ...

Controlling anisotropic droplet shapes on heterogeneous surfaces is crucial for many industrial applications, yet a robust model for precisely depicting these highly anisotropic shapes remains ...

Anisotropic materials play a critical role in today's manufacturing processes and other applications. Their unique ability to retain their shape under extreme thermal conditions has made these ...

In recent years, experimental and theoretical investigations have shown that anisotropic colloids can self-organize into ordered porous monolayers, where the interplay of localized bonding sites, ...

ROSEMONT, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Wynnchurch Capital, L.P. (“Wynnchurch”), a leading middle-market private equity firm, announced today that it has acquired Astro Shapes, LLC (“Astro Shapes ...

Abstract: The well-known coupled-mode theory of waveguides is extended to include dielectric guides made of anisotropic materials. Exact coupled-wave equations for anisotropic dielectric waveguides ...

The body-positive movement has encouraged people, especially women, to see beauty in all shapes and sizes, and it's reminded us that body ideals are culturally constructed and not based on science.

The errors are modeled as an anisotropic multivariate Gaussian distribution, and the field of uncertainty (FOU) is defined as the 5-sigma region of this distribution. Due to the significant errors ...
