In 1945, as the first atomic bomb exploded in the New Mexico desert, Enrico Fermi stood miles away, holding a few scraps of ...

Unifying gravity and quantum theory remains a significant goal in modern physics. Despite the success in unifying all other ...

Brazilian researchers have developed a technique that estimates the force exerted on each grain of sand in a dune from images ...

Turbulence in clear skies could double due to climate change, according to a scientific study. Several flights with injuries have raised concerns among passengers. Is flying now more dangerous? We ...

Optimal packing problems have inspired mathematicians for centuries. Biophysicists now add a layer to the question: how do chloroplasts arrange ...

Abstract: Three-dimensional object detection plays a key role in autonomous driving systems. The performance of light detection and ranging (LiDAR)-based models is limited because of the sparsity and ...

To create functional press brake tools, prioritizing wall thickness over infill can be more effective. Thicker walls offer ...
