The development of new materials has been a transformative force in shaping the modern world. The traditional approach to creating new functional materials relies on a combination of hard-won ...

Origami structures with morphing behaviours and unique mechanical properties are useful in aerospace deployable structures, soft robots and mechanical metamaterials. Curved-crease origami, as one of ...

The Lagrange multiplier method is an effective method for finding the extreme values of functions, which can solve some complex mathematical and engineering problems. The introduction of this method ...

Animal behaviour is increasingly recognised as critical to the prediction of non-native species success and impacts. Rainbow trout and brown trout have been introduced globally, but there appear to be ...

Curved integral imaging 3D display could provide enhanced 3D sense of immersion and wider viewing angle, and is gaining increasing interest among discerning users. In this work, large scale microlens ...

Increasing psychophysical evidence suggests that specific image features – or statistics – can appear unpleasant or induce visual discomfort in humans. Such unpleasantness tends to be particularly ...
