Scientists at the University of Massachusetts Amherst have appropriated a less-common technique of origami known as "collapse"-type, in which all folds are carried out more or less simultaneously, to ...

This novel fabrication process makes lightweight, expandable, 3D structures. Engineers at The Georgia Institute of Technology have merged the ancient art of folding paper, origami, with 3D printing to ...

DNA origami is a technique used for the nanoscale folding of DNA to develop two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) shapes at a nanoscale range. No bigger than a virus, each of these ...

ATLANTA, GA—By merging the ancient art of origami with 21 st century technology, researchers have created a one-step approach to fabricating complex origami structures whose light weight, ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers at Tel Aviv University relied on principles of origami, the Japanese art of paperfolding, to develop an original and innovative solution for a problem that has been ...

Researchers at Harvard have developed a new technique that uses origami to create foldable 3D shapes, an advance that could be the key to designing pop-up furniture, medical devices and even buildings ...

Researchers from Aarhus University and Berkeley Laboratory have designed RNA molecules, that folds into nanoscale rectangles, cylinders, and satellites, and have studied their 3D structure and ...

If you want to print something a few inches tall, extruded plastic is a good medium. But when you need something at the nanometer scale, DNA is a better bet — but who has the time to design and ...
