The invisible, yet powerful, force of surface tension. Let’s dive into the world beneath the water’s edge and uncover how these tiny architects of nature turn a simple pond into a stage for ...

Physicists at the University of Liège have succeeded in sculpting the surface of water by exploiting surface tension. Using ...

The Johnson–Kendall–Roberts theory is the basis of modern contact mechanics. It describes how two deformable objects adhere together, driven by adhesion energy and opposed by elasticity. Here ...
