In an article recently published in the open-access journal Materials, researchers presented an analysis of the mechanical characteristics of flexible screens.

Simplified calculation model for tissue properties developed at Karl Landsteiner University for Health Sciences Krems (Austria) Krems (Austria), February 16th, 2022 – Viscous mechanical properties of biological tissues can now be described more easily than before. This is shown by a recently published pap...

For researchers to study the body in a diseased state, they have to know its beginning state to determine the paths that led to disease. Using a mouse

Researchers recently observed the existence of a critical value of loading rates. They found mechanical behavior of the coal varies substantially with the loading rates on different sides of the critical value.

There's a 3 1/2-square mile specimen in eastern Oregon that weighs 35,000 tons and could possibly be the biggest living thing on Earth, according to researchers at the University of Utah. It caused $1.5 million worth of damage to Georgia's peach trees in only two years. Armillaria ostoyae - the scientific name of the fungus - infects and kills 600 different species of woody plants and it is very difficult to kill this fungus.

With massive webs of probing black tentacles extending for miles below the ground, the Armillaria group of fungi includes some of the largest known organisms on our planet. 

A fungus spanning more than three square miles is sucking the life out of trees in Oregon. University of Utah researchers say it’s possibly the largest living on organism on earth.

University of Utah scientists have studied a 3 1\/2-square mile specimen in eastern Oregon that weighs 35,000 tons and is possibly the largest living organism on earth.

Dec. 7, 2021 — It’s called Armillaria ostoyae, and it’s a gnarly parasitic fungus with long black tentacles that spread out and attack vegetation with
