Over the past decade, Professor L. Mahadevan's Soft Math Lab at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied ...

The recent development of modular origami structures has ushered in an era for active metamaterials with multiple degrees of freedom (multi-DOF). Notably, no systematic inverse design approach for 3D ...

Full-wave electromagnetic (EM) simulation tools have become ubiquitous in antenna design, especially final tuning of geometry parameters. From the reliability standpoint, the recommended realization ...

Decades of research has viewed DNA as a sequence-based instruction manual; yet every cell in the body shares the same genes – so where is the language that writes the memory of cell identities?

How can the behavior of elementary particles and the structure of the entire universe be described using the same mathematical concepts? This question is at the heart of recent work by the ...

Granular metamaterials made of staple-shaped entangled particles interlock into load-bearing structures without adhesive, ...
