Cordierite, a remarkable mineral familiar to many as the material behind heat-resistant pizza stones, exhibits an unusual ...

Anisotropic materials play a critical role in today's manufacturing processes and other applications. Their unique ability to retain their shape under extreme thermal conditions has made these ...

Finding new angles on an old artform, McGill researchers have increased the number of stable shapes that kirigami-based ...

McGill University researchers have expanded the capabilities of kirigami-inspired metamaterials to achieve anisotropic ...

Cordierite, the material behind heat-resistant pizza stones, has been shown to resist changes in size despite significant temperature fluctuations. The reasons for this have been largely unexplained ...

Recently, a research team uncovered the propagation and toughening mechanism of tortuous crack front in bioinspired ...

Cordierite, a remarkable mineral familiar to many as the material behind heat-resistant pizza stones, exhibits an unusual ...

"Examples of such materials include Pyrex, used for oven-safe dishes, and the glass-ceramic employed in cooking hobs." Unlike ...

Solar burst shortest time profiles, source sizes, and positions are determined mainly by propagation effects (mostly anisotropic scattering) and not by the intrinsic properties of the radio ...

In a recent paper published in National Science Review, a scientific research team from China revealed a new structural ...
