Nanostructured Protein Surfaces Inspired by Spider Silk
Harnessing recombinant spider silk technology, bioengineered spidroin variants enable the creation of functionalized nanostructured coatings with tunable affinity for specific targets, supporting a broad range of applications ‐ from antifouling surfaces and targeted drug delivery to advanced cell therapies and precision bio‐patterning via lithography ...

Reasoning with Spider Diagrams [PDF]
Spider diagrams combine and extend Venn diagrams and Euler circles to express constraints on sets and their relationships with other sets. These diagrams can usefully be used in conjunction with object-oriented modelling notations such as the Unified ...

A SPIDER constructed its web in an angle of my garden, the sides of which were attached by long threads to shrubs at the height of nearly three feet from the gravel path beneath. Being much exposed to the wind, the equinoctial gales of this autumn destroyed the web several times.

Spider web-inspired acoustic metamaterials [PDF]
Spider silk is a remarkable example of bio-material with superior mechanical characteristics. Its multilevel structural organization of dragline and viscid silk leads to unusual and tunable properties, extensively studied from a quasi-static point of ...

Research Progress of Phase Change Materials for Thermal Management in Electronic Components
Phase change materials(PCMs) can effectively solve the overheating problem in electronic devices during use, but the low themal conductivity of PCM itself hinders its development. The problem of low thermal conductivity can be addressed by using metal fins, adding nanparticles and porous metal foams.

One Dimensional Metal Oxide Semiconductor Nanotransistors
This review assesses one dimensional metal oxide NW‐FETs as promising alternatives to conventional transistors. It explores how advances in architecture, material composition, and fabrication processes expand device capabilities. Emphasis is placed on novel gate configurations, different metal oxide nanowires, and post‐treatment methods, which ...

I HAVE frequently observed that when a shock of any kind is imparted to the leaves or twigs, to which the web of the garden spider is affixed, the animal shakes violently in the centre of the web, so as to become almost or totally invisible to the eye; this quivering or dancing motion being kept up for many seconds, and then suddenly stopped.
