Optical fibers have reshaped the technological landscape, from optical networks and high-speed data communication to in situ imaging and non-invasive surgery methods. The revolution allowed by these fibers has been made possible by its fabrication method, ...
The brushing of hair requires a complex understanding of the interaction between soft hair fibers and the soft brushing device. It is also reliant on having both visual and tactile information. Guided by a recently developed model of soft tangled fiber bun ...

Optical characterisation of a Nephila edulis spider dragline silk is performed. The silk fiber transmits light up to 1400 nm with a propagation loss of ∼9 dB/cm and birefringence of 8×10−3 measured at 1302 nm. ...
The aim of tissue engineering is to regenerate tissue for the purpose of repairing or replacing diseased or injured tissue. Therefore, cells that are able to proliferate are seeded on scaffolds that provide mechanical stability and direct the three-dimensi ...
Silk possesses extraordinary properties that scientists are currently working hard on harnessing. Amongst them, this primeval material has shown early potential of having excellent optical properties. Through a regeneration process, it is possible to obtai ...
From the spider’s perspective, silk is not only a building material but also a safety net, a weapon and a sensory organ to detect the presence of prey on its web. For scientists, dragline silk - directly extracted from spiders - is a tough, biodegradable a ...
