Our universe plays by certain rules, which originate from different branches of physics. But sometimes the rules seem ...

Researchers at The University of South Carolina, USC, have proposed that a link between string field theory and quantum mechanics does exist. The link assumes that string field theory is a fully ...

When Karl von Terzaghi applied the effective stress principle in the soil mechanics theory, the strength and volumetric behavior of saturated soils could be clearly understood and general constitutive ...

Continuum mechanics and elasticity theory form the backbone of modern investigations into material behaviour, providing a framework that combines geometric principles with differential equations to ...

The image depicts an experiment in which heavy particles(illustrated as the moon), cause an interference pattern (a quantum effect), while also bendingspacetime. The ...

The widely accepted cosmological model begins with the Big Bang, followed by a rapid phase of inflationary expansion. This theory aligns well with observations of the cosmos such as the cosmic ...

Imagine you are sitting in a big symphony hall, and you’re listening to an orchestra play for the first time. The orchestra is performing a Violin Concerto by Beethoven. As the soloist runs her hands ...

Scientists propose a link between string field theory and quantum mechanics that could open the door to using string field theory as the basis of all physics. Their calculations "could solve the ...

Researchers have analyzed the mechanical forces underpinning simple knots, and come up with a theory that describes how a knot's topology determines its mechanical forces. Got rope? Then try this ...
