"What we have here is the proof of concept of an integrated system for manufacturing complex origami. It has tremendous potential applications," said Glaucio H. Paulino, a professor at the School of ...

3D micro-/nanofabrication holds the key to build a large variety of micro-/nanoscale materials, structures, devices, and systems with unique properties that do not manifest in their 2D planar ...

This novel fabrication process makes lightweight, expandable, 3D structures. Engineers at The Georgia Institute of Technology have merged the ancient art of folding paper, origami, with 3D printing to ...

A research team led by the University of Tokyo has developed a self-folding technique to quickly and easily form complex three-dimensional shapes with heat. The technology is expected to be applied in ...

A new study demonstrates that researchers can control the distance between two molecules such that they can adjust the step size to as small as Bohr’s radius. This proof-of-concept study using DNA ...
