Abstract: 3D shapes captured by scanning devices are often incomplete due to occlusion. 3D shape completion methods have been explored to tackle this limitation. However, most of these methods are ...

Decades of research has viewed DNA as a sequence-based instruction manual; yet every cell in the body shares the same genes – so where is the language that writes the memory of cell identities?

Can you drill a hole in a cube that an identical cube could fall through? Prince Rupert of the Rhine first asked this question in the 17th century, and he soon found out the answer is yes. One can ...

After more than three centuries, a geometry problem that originated with a royal bet has been solved. Imagine you’re holding two equal-size dice. Is it possible to bore a tunnel through one die that’s ...

A rectangular prism, also known as a cuboid, is a three-dimensional geometrical shape with six flat sides. These sides are all rectangles and can have different lengths, widths, and heights. The ...

Concept design for a rectangular space telescope, modeled after the Diffractive Interfero Coronagraph Exoplanet Resolver (DICER), a notional infrared space observatory, and the James Webb Space ...

As one of the world's most powerful fighter aircraft currently in service, the F-22 Raptor is a marvel of technological achievement. Made from some of the most advanced and durable metals and material ...

Researchers have found special atomic patterns called quasicrystals in 3D-printed aluminum alloys. Quasicrystals increase the strength of 3D-printed aluminum, the researchers discovered, making it ...

The film explores different geometric shapes, focusing on cylinders, rectangular prisms, and pyramids. It describes the properties of each shape, such as the curved surface of a cylinder, the ...
