The amplituhedron, a shape at the heart of particle physics, appears to be deeply connected to the mathematics of paper folding. The amplituhedron is a geometric shape with an almost mystical quality: ...

Researchers have folded their way into a groundbreaking new family of origami patterns. Dubbed bloom patterns, because they resemble flowers as they unfold, the new class of origami shapes holds great ...

A new family of origami shapes that unfold like flower petals could be used to design more effective structures in space, like telescopes or solar panels. Origami structures, based on the Japanese ...

Bloom patterns could be useful, as engineers build folding structures to send to outer space. They’re also very pretty. Researchers have now found a new class of origami that they call bloom patterns, ...

BYU Engineering is well known for origami-inspired research and innovations, including foldable antenna systems used in space. Recently, an undergraduate student made a significant discovery—a new ...

A study published in Nature Communications presents a way to create deployable structures that transform from compact folded states into expansive configurations with perfectly smooth surfaces.

One of the seventh Evolutions of Eevee is Sylveon in Pokemon GO. The Pocket Monster was added to the mobile game with the start of Luminous Legends Y Part 2 on May 25, 2021. This event also marked the ...

Eevee is a popular Pokemon, in part because it can evolve into so many different forms. But with all those options and so many games, it’s hard to remember how to get ’em all. If you’re trying to get ...

In 1936, the British mathematician Alan Turing came up with an idea for a universal computer. It was a simple device: an infinite strip of tape covered in zeros and ones, together with a machine that ...

It’s an ancient form of art, but now origami is providing modern solutions in the fields of space, engineering, mathematics and medicine. For one Canadian aerospace engineer, origami and its ability ...
