Researchers measured mechanical tension at the nanoscale to explore how living cells produce and detect force. The research could lead to a better understanding of how tissues and tumors form and grow ...
University of Illinois researchers can now explain the physical mechanisms behind click beetles’ clicking maneuver. Belonging to the Elateroidea family, a click beetle (or snapping beetle) is ...
A book of mechanical actions is a wondrous thing — mechanically inclined children have lost collective decades pouring over them over the generations. What could possibly be better? Why, if the ...
