Silicon Valley is a region located in the southern part of the San Francisco Bay Area in California, United States. It is known for being a hub of technology and innovation, home to many of the world’s largest technology companies and startups.The name “Silicon Valley” comes from the fact that the region was originally known […]
Read MoreGiven that nano-robots will be minuscule, doing microscopic and macroscopic activities would likely require a very large number of them to collaborate. These nano-robot swarms include both those that can replicate freely in the natural environment and those that cannot (such as utility fog). Some supporters of nanorobotics believe that self-replicating nanorobots do not necessarily […]
Read MoreBiomaterials must not only be approved as biocompatible but also specially developed for their intended use inside a medical device. This is crucial when considering the mechanical characteristics that determine how a particular biomaterial performs. The Young’s Modulus, E, which represents a material’s elastic response to stresses, is one of the most important material properties. […]
Read MoreBiopolymers are organic materials made by the cells of living things. Biopolymers, like other polymers, are made up of monomeric units that are linked together through covalent bonds to form larger molecules. Polynucleotides, polypeptides, and polysaccharides are the three primary groups of biopolymers, which are categorized based on the monomers employed and the structure of […]
