Northwestern Engineering researchers have developed a theoretical model to design soft materials that demonstrate autonomous oscillating properties that mimic biological functions. The work could advance the design of responsive materials used to deliver therapeutics as well as for robot-like soft materials that operate autonomously.
The design and synthesis of materials with biological functions require a delicate balance between structural form and physiological function. During embryonic development,…
