As a grape slowly dries and shrivels, its surface creases, ultimately taking on the wrinkled form of a raisin ... Reis says the new theory will serve as a design tool for scientists to engineer ...

In a ground-breaking study, Swedish scientists have shown that people can detect nano-scale wrinkles while running their fingers upon a seemingly smooth surface ... allows us to design how ...

A wrinkled retina — also known as a macular pucker — is when fine wrinkles appear on the surface of the retina in an area called the macula. It’s a rare eye condition, according to the ...

The more wrinkled a brain gets, the bigger the surface of the cortext becomes. The human brain is especially wrinkled. If you look at a human brain, you only see about a third of its surface–the ...

"Our experimental materials use cracks, folds or wrinkles to mimic the surface engineering of skin," says Luyi Sun, Ph.D., who heads the research. "These new materials are unique because they ...

Researchers found that the particular pattern of the ridges and crevices of the brain's convoluted surface ... The development of the brain's wrinkles can be mimicked in a lab using a double ...

Systems that operate better in dry conditions have received a boost with the development of a wrinkled surface that sheds water more quickly than one that is smooth. By adding a subtle, wrinkle-like ...

Rivers combine water, while the channels on a wrinkled finger and meant to force water away. “The act of pressing a fingertip down on a wet surface squeezes the fluid out from under the finger ...
