The gravitational wave, a ripple in space-time set off by two black holes colliding, reached U.S.-based Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatories in January 2025.
An interdisciplinary collaboration has developed a way to 3D-print concrete underwater – a technique that could transform on-site maritime construction and the repair of critical infrastructure.
Cornell researchers, in partnership with the technology company NVIDIA, have developed a method for creating digital images of cloth that more accurately captures the texture, sheen and translucence of textiles.
Smaller grains – the microscopic crystal regions within the material – normally make metal stronger, but when deformed at extreme speeds, this rule flips and metals with very small grains actually become softer, new Cornell research reveals.
Researchers discovered that DNA packaging structures called nucleosomes, which have been traditionally seen as roadblocks for gene expression, actually help reduce torsional stress in DNA strands and facilitate genetic information decoding.
