In biology textbooks and beyond, the human genome and DNA therein typically are taught in only one dimension. While it can be ...

Some 3D shapes, like cubes and pyramids, can be opened or unfolded along their edges to create a flat shape. The unfolded shape is called the net of the solid. Here are some 3D shapes and their nets.

Shading brings 3D forms to life, beautifully carving out the shape of objects around us. Despite the importance of shading ...

From 2D images to 3D shapes. Diffusion models, such as DALL-E, are a type of generative AI model that can produce lifelike images from random noise.

Scientists from The Hebrew University of Jerusalem have created wood ink that can be extruded into flat wooden structures, self-morphing into complex 3D shapes as they dry and shrink.

Mighty morphin’ flat-packed pasta takes on 3D shapes as it cooks New approach could lead to more sustainable packaging, transportation, and storage. Jennifer Ouellette – May 5, 2021 2:05 pm | 81 ...

Researchers at MIT have figured out a way to 3D print shape-changing soft materials. To achieve this, mechanical engineer Xuanhe Zhao and his colleagues developed a 3D-printable ink infused with ...

This Stanford team is working on a way to display 3D information, like in a CAD or modeling program, using a "2.5D" display made up of steel pins that be raised or lowered as sort of tactile ...

3D shapes have faces (sides), edges and vertices (corners). Faces - A face is a flat or curved surface on a 3D shape. For example a cube has six faces, a cylinder has three and a sphere has just one.
