Did you know that, at a certain point on a moving wheel... there's no motion? Did you know that, at a certain point on a moving wheel... there's no motion? I mean, kinda... it's all relative, right?

Engineering experts have proposed a novel technique to measure the cell traction force field and tackle the research gap. The interdisciplinary research team used single nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers ...

Advancements in understanding rotational motion in living cells may help researchers shed light on the causes of deadly diseases, such as Alzheimer's, according to researchers. Advancements in ...

Oct. 22, 2003 — A new measurement protocol, reported in the Oct. 1 issue of Spine, may distinguish a subgroup of patients with cervical spine hypermobility associated with whiplash. "Unphysiological ...

We studied the Brownian motion of isolated ellipsoidal particles in water confined to two dimensions and elucidated the effects of coupling between rotational and translational motion. By using ...

SAN FRANCISCO, April 27, 2009 – A special May issue of the Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America (BSSA) focuses on the emerging field of rotational seismology and its applications to ...

The Earth rotates at about 1,670 kilometers per hour at the equator, yet we experience no sense of motion. But how is this possible? To understand why we don’t feel Earth's rotation, it’s essential to ...

(Inside Science) -- Anyone who has ever had to rush from one airport gate to another may have experienced how much trouble a wobbly, rolling suitcase can cause, even while walking at modest speeds.

Mechanics plays a fundamental role in cell biology. Cells navigate these mechanical forces to explore their environments and sense the behaviour of surrounding living cells. The physical ...
