Cornell researchers have used advanced electron microscopy to identify "mouse bite" defects in 3D transistors for the first time ...

A new technique maintains structural integrity by essentially hiding openings in materials from surrounding forces. Rather than reinforcing an opening, such as a hole or a window, to protect against a ...

Infected bone defects arise in conditions such as osteomyelitis and post-traumatic bone infections, where microbial persistence and immune imbalance prevent effective healing.

Four Case Western Reserve University undergraduate students presented at the Society for Developmental Biology’s 12th Structural Birth Defects Meeting, held Oct. 18–20 in Washington, DC. All four ...

Whether designing a window in an airliner or a cable conduit for an engine, manufacturers devote a lot of effort to reinforcing openings for structural integrity. But the reinforcement is rarely ...
