Inspired by kirigami, a type of Japanese paper art, researchers have created a new material that transforms from a grid into ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. — Like a yoga novice, electronic components don’t stretch easily. But that’s changing thanks to a variation of origami that involves cutting folded pieces of paper. In a study published ...

Researchers inspired by kirigami, the Japanese art of cutting and folding paper, create a friction-boosting material that could give shoes a stronger grip on ice and other slippery surfaces. Diemut ...

(Nanowerk News) The art of paper cutting may slice through a roadblock on the way to flexible, stretchable electronics, a team of engineers and an artist at the University of Michigan has found. In ...

The future of wireless technology -- from charging devices to boosting communication signals -- relies on the antennas that transmit electromagnetic waves becoming increasingly versatile, durable and ...

Origami-inspired materials use folds in materials to embed powerful functionality. However, all that folding can be pretty labor intensive. Now, researchers at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of ...

Researchers have developed new soft-material structures which can hold nearly 14,000 times their weight using the Japanese art form of kirigami -- a version of origami that allows materials to be cut ...

The Vietnamese youth are becoming increasingly absorbed with the modern-day art of kirigami (the creation of 3D paper artworks). The Vietnamese youth are becoming increasingly absorbed with the modern ...

Using Kirigami, the Japanese art of paper cutting, a mechanical engineer has developed a camera with a curvy, adaptable imaging sensor that could improve image quality in endoscopes, night-vision ...

Max Shtein knows what it feels like to suffer from a painful injury. Once, he crashed his bike and broke his collarbone. "Really painful recovery process," said the professor of materials science and ...
