A new study by mathematicians at Freie Universität Berlin shows that planar tiling, also known as tessellation, is far more than a decorative ...

Tessellations aren’t just eye-catching patterns—they can be used to crack complex mathematical problems. By repeatedly reflecting shapes to tile a surface, researchers uncovered a method that links ...

To explore this long-standing mystery, an international team of scientists formed a group known as the Collaboration for ...

A global catalog shows how creatures across the tree of life balance rigidity with flexibility in remarkably consistent ways ...

Life begins with a single fertilized cell that gradually transforms into a multicellular organism. This process requires ...

Researchers uncover the mathematical structure behind mesmerizing tiling patterns, linking their visual appeal to the ...

dragon-shaped asset where scales, horns, and whiskers follow the underlying geometry rather than appearing as a flat overlay.

Often when describing patterns, they are placed in one of two categories: organic or geometric. Organic designs are ones ...

The same pulling force that causes “tears” in a glass of wine also shapes embryos. It’s another example of how genes exploit mechanical forces for growth and development. Sip a glass of wine, and you ...

The Abu Dhabi-exclusive Shimmering Lights sautoir has already become the show’s obsession When Piaget brings its particular brand of radiance to a city, it never arrives silently. This week the Swiss ...
