Surface wrinkling morphologies in various living matter with toroidal geometry. (a) Bidirectional stripes on a garlic. (b) Hexagonal-labyrinth bistable patterns on a dehydrated pepper. (c) Transverse ...
Nematic order on curved surfaces is often disrupted by the presence of topological defects, which are singular regions in which the orientational order is undefined. In the presence of ...
This paper by TSAW Drones discusses the need for less noise in UAVs, how these toroidals can benefit the drone industry, how these propellers came to be and how exactly they reduce the noise. Also, in ...
These strangely-shaped twisted-toroid propellers look like a revolutionary (sorry) advance for the aviation and marine sectors. Radically quieter than traditional propellers in both air and water, ...
The self-assembled state of the molecules determines the characteristics of supramolecular polymers. On the other hand, nothing is understood about how morphologies affect the characteristics of ...
