Topological defects govern how many advanced materials behave, but predicting them has traditionally required slow, ...

Enzymes with specific functions are becoming increasingly important in industry, medicine and environmental protection. For ...

Scientists have developed an AI system that can rapidly predict complex defect patterns in liquid crystals, cutting simulation times from hours to milliseconds. The approach could transform how ...

MIT researchers have designed silicon structures that can perform calculations in an electronic device using excess heat instead of electricity. These tiny structures could someday enable more ...

When designing a building for lateral loads such as those generated by wind or earthquakes, engineers have several options. Lateral loads may be transferred to the foundation via braced frames or ...
