The vascular system remodels throughout life to ensure adequate perfusion of tissues as they grow, regress, or change metabolic activity. Angiogenesis, the sprouting of new blood vessels to expand the ...

Liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs) are heavily employed in the field of soft robotics because they exhibit the such programmable reversible shape changing and anisotropic mechanical response. But new ...

How much does a liquid drop spread upon impacting a solid surface? The apparent simplicity of this question, coupled with the ubiquity of drop impact in daily life, belies the complexity of the ...

Meteorologists began warning that extremely dangerous storms were likely coming days before tornadoes tore across the Central and Eastern U.S. in March and April 2025. But pinpointing exactly where a ...

Changes in the mechanical properties of single cells are related to the physiological state and fate of cells. The construction of cell constitutive equations is essential for understanding the ...

Unraveling the details of fracture propagation leading to catastrophic rock failure is critical for understanding the precursors to earthquakes. Here we present numerical simulations of fracture ...

If you think about mountain ranges like the Andes or the Himalayas, you can come up with multiple factors that must affect their size and shape. There’s the collision of tectonic plates that squeezes ...

The towering glaciers of West Antarctica hold the fate of the world’s coasts in their flanks. Their collapse could send sea levels up by at least a foot by 2100—and potentially much more. For years, ...
