Topological Mechanics of Origami and Kirigami
Visualization, coarsening, and flow dynamics of focal conic domains in simulated smectic-A liquid crystals
Pitch perfect: how fruit flies control their body pitch angle
Shear thickening paper selected as PRL Editor's Suggestion!
Our shear thickening paper that settles a decades-long debate in suspension rheology has been selected as PRL Editor's Suggestion.
Hydrodynamic and Contact Contributions to Continuous Shear Thickening in Colloidal Suspensions
How do plant roots find the quickest way down?
Most plants grow towards the light, but roots have to grow down into the soil to find water and nutrients. How do they do this? And what happens to a growing root when it encounters a rock? Along with investigators from the Boyce Thompson Institute for Plant Research, we show how plants manage to grow in Ithaca's rocky soil!
Shear Thickening in Suspensions
We introduced an experiment to solve the mystry of how Oobleck works.
