You could transfer the pattern tile by tile onto paper, but the process would be very laborious and take a long time. However, if you know that the mosaic always consists of the same regular pattern, ...

In the future, quantum computers are anticipated to solve problems once thought unsolvable, from predicting the course of chemical reactions to producing highly reliable weather forecasts. For now, ...

Abstract: Developing algorithms for plant cell population tracking is very critical for the modeling of plant cell growth pattern and gene expression dynamics. The tracking of plant cells in ...

In this paper, sorghum and reed, light stem structures in nature, are selected as biomimetic prototypes. According to their mechanical stability characteristics-the porous structure at the node ...

Abstract: This paper evaluates the performance of typical optimization algorithms in pixelate metasurface design using MATLAB-CST co-simulation. It further proposes a novel inverse genetic-particle ...

The advanced tools we’re developing are essential for understanding how organisms interact with materials — a key step to identifying surface properties that resist biofilm formation, which has ...

The 2025 Audi RS3 hot hatch and sedan have been detailed for Australia. Priced from $104,800 before on-road costs, the updated RS3 is up to $9585 dearer than before, and introduces revised exterior ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. In 2024, superconductivity—the flow of electric current with zero resistance—was discovered in three distinct materials. Two instances ...

Is it possible to fill space “cubically” with shapes that act like spheres? A proof at the intersection of geometry and theoretical computer science says yes. In the fourth century, the Greek ...
