Science classrooms across the globe have been pedalling a lie for decades, maybe even centuries. Eggs are not stronger when ...

Possibly the most common science experiment from our school days – the egg drop challenge – now has found a place in the ...

Cells within tissues are continuously exposed to physical forces, including hydrostatic pressure, shear stress and compression and tension forces. The nature of these forces can change in ...

Their research resulted in the accidental identification of multicellularity across all three domains of life and demonstrated the importance of mechanical forces in shaping archaeal tissues.

Reducing the dynamics of the initial engagement through a fold-in procedure decreased the peak compression force, the peak downward force and the engagement speed in excess of 30%. For example, peak ...
