To look for the answer, the scientists have been using an X-ray microtomography machine to take pictures of crumpled balls of paper. Â This machine works much as a CT scan does.

He achieved as much with his 1995 creation, “Work No. 88,” a single piece of A4 paper crumpled into a ball. ... The news that crumpled paper obeys a state variable — or a crease law, ...

He achieved as much with his 1995 creation, Work No. 88, a single piece of A4 paper crumpled into a ball. Within that crinkled sphere – like a tectonically wonky planet seen from afar ...

Crumpling a sheet of paper into a tight ball causes some regions to become strongly creased, creating a network of narrow ridges and sharp, conical peaks. The material at these creases bends and ...

The crumpled balls can move apart when lithium deposits and then readily assemble back together when the lithium is depleted. Because miniature paper balls are conductive and allow lithium ions to ...

About five years ago, Huang discovered crumpled graphene balls — a novel type of ultrafine particles that resemble crumpled paper balls. The particles are made by drying tiny water droplets with ...

Steve Silverman earlier this week sat at the front of his fourth-grade classroom during a reading exercise, pulled out a crumpled ball of paper and lobbed it at a student. With their hands ...

He achieved as much with his 1995 creation, “Work No. 88,” a single piece of A4 paper crumpled into a ball. ... (A crumpled ball is a collection of d-cones connected by ridges.) ...

"Closely packed, the crumpled graphene balls operate like a highly uniform, continuous solid," said Jiayan Luo, the paper's co-corresponding author and professor of chemical engineering at Tianjin ...
