Modeling the behavior of liquids is important for a wide range of applications, from industrial processes and medical devices to computer graphics and visual simulations. However, despite many years ...

Researchers introduces the first toroidal, light-driven micro-robot that can move autonomously in viscous liquids, such as mucus. This innovation marks a major step forward in developing micro-robots ...

The physics of liquid aspiration and dispensing make viscous liquid handling tricky. Some liquids (like glycerol) are impossible to accurately pipette manually, and can only be pipetted using an ...

Thick and viscous liquids can create problems when pipetting as they have low elasticity, enter the tip more slowly than other liquids, and often stick to the wall when dispensed. There are, however, ...

Molecular assays necessitate accurate pipetting reagents and samples with a diverse set of properties — including viscous samples that can clog tips, distribute unevenly, and complicate ...

The hunt for graphene's niche just got a lot weirder -- apparently graphene can make electrons violate Ohm's Law with quantum effects on the nonlocal scale. Share on Facebook (opens in a new window) ...

In a study published in Science Advances, Chinese researchers have demonstrated the dynamics of liquid entrainment on solid surfaces with millimeter structures. Inspired by this phenomenon, ...

Researchers from Tampere University in Finland and Anhui Jianzhu University in China have made a significant breakthrough in soft robotics. Their groundbreaking study introduces the first toroidal, ...
