The once-dubbed "city-killer" asteroid 2024 YR4 has surprised scientists with its 'unusual' shape as it rapidly rotates through space on a trajectory that could see it hit the moon.

Shape memory polymers (SMPs) can transform between initial and programmed shapes under certain stimuli and have promising potential in developing shape-adaptative bone scaffolds to treat irregular ...

These forces shape the landscapes we observe today, but there is one often-forgotten factor that is important in this process: the rock’s strength. To learn more about this aspect of landscape ...

Using the Frontier supercomputer, researchers have cracked a major challenge in nuclear physics: accurately predicting nuclear structure and forces at an unprecedented level of detail. Their ...

Creating 3D shapes can be an enjoyable and educational experience, whether for school projects, design models, or creative crafts. These shapes can be made from paper, cardboard, clay, or digital ...

An AI method enables the generation of sharp, high-quality 3D shapes that are closer to the quality of the best 2D image models. Previous approaches typically generated blurry or cartoonish 3D shapes.

The immersive projection, which was set up by Disguise partner Electrosonic, an audiovisual and technology services company, features a six-minute video show mapped onto a 10-foot-tall 3D ...

In recent years, with the rapid growth number of multi-modal 3D shapes, it has become increasingly important to efficiently recognize a vast number of unlabeled multi-modal 3D shapes through ...

Mathematicians are “reinventing the wheel” by giving it a new shape. Their newly imagined wheel looks like a many-dimensional guitar pick, and it could theoretically roll in ways beyond our ...
