A new study revisits a century-old question about how turbulence starts. The findings could potentially influence not only aircraft engineering but even the design of mechanical heart valves, and ...

In 2026, we need to be doing much more to help communities prepare and to become a resilient before the next fire breaks out. That means investing in innovation, using better data, better technology ...

We take a closer look at cute, mischievous chipmunks and why you may want to get rid of (or at least discourage) them.

Engineers who understand how to impose structure around model behavior play a critical role in turning experimental workflows ...

In a new study, scientists successfully trained a brain organoid derived from mouse stem cells to solve an engineering benchmark known as the “cart-pole problem.” By applying weak or strong electric ...

Blow up a long balloon and two things happen: it gets longer and it gets wider. Now imagine a living cell that inflates itself under enormous pressure and yet only grows longer, never adding width.

Abstract: The objective of this paper is to enhance the swarm-based metaheuristic dandelion optimizer (DO) algorithm by incorporating various strategies to address early convergence and mitigate the ...

In a landmark study published in Cell Reports, scientists demonstrated that mouse cortical organoids (miniature, lab-grown ...

Modern software increasingly depends on data structures that go far beyond basic arrays and trees. Some of the most powerful systems rely on designs that rarely appear in traditional programming ...

The University of Texas is a world-leading university system. There, students from across Texas earn an education that prepares them to think carefully about the most pressing issues facing our state ...

(Abstract composition of a woman surrounded by dreamy colorful clouds depicting the subject of sleep and imagination. Credit: agsandrew / Shutterstock.) Dreams have famously led to some pretty ...
