Knot theory provides a rigorous mathematical framework to classify and study the entanglements that occur in polymer systems. By applying topological methods, researchers can decipher how knots and ...
Robots may soon mimic the human sense of touch, with advances in flexible tactile detection aiming to endow them with the ability to sense friction and slip. Polymer optical fiber knots are at the ...
Knots are everywhere — from tangled headphones to DNA strands packed inside viruses — but how an isolated filament can knot itself without collisions or external agitation has remained a longstanding ...
