➡️New episode with Hamed Rajabi discussing mechanical intelligence. One of the questions: If there is no self-healing, how we can design intelligent structures to deflect cracks, drawing inspiration from insect wings. Find out more in the video: youtu.be/zXrSl52Drf0?si…




Did you see? We've awarded a UK Intelligence Community Postdoctoral Research Fellowship to seven early-career researchers, to conduct research for the benefit of intelligence, security and defence communities. Find out more: raeng.org.uk/news/insect-in… #RAEngResearch

One method of assessing blood pressure involves listening for “Korotkoff sounds,” often described as tapping or thumping noises. Research out this week in Science Advances shows Korotkoff sounds are caused by shear vibrations in the surrounding tissues: scim.ag/4ls

Paper out!!! From insect wing biomechanics to biomimetic design of shape morphing systems! @CommsBio rdcu.be/djPdm

The human ear has been honed by millions of years of evolution to best suit our hearing needs. Its spiral shape can also inspire acoustic technologies like ultrasonic transducers, which create and listen for ultrasonic echoes....Learn more! #scilight aippub.org/47HMKqR



It was an amazing experience to attend the Royal Society Summer Science Exhibition and do ultrasound scans on 76 volunteers. If you want to know there is an extra bone in your knee and learn more about fabella, then join us tomorrow at the Royal Society. @MBerthaume #ultrasound



Insect wings adapt to applied loads almost fully automatically. Can they inspire adaptive structures with simplified actuations? Mechanical intelligence (MI) answers “yes”! See doi.org/10.1002/advs.2… @AdvSciNews @lsbu_mi @LSBU @LSBU_BioEng Images courtesy of @DrAdrianSmith
