For example, periodic mesoporous silica nanoparticles of designed shapes have emerged as promising candidates for drug-delivery applications [8].
In this work, a thermal molding technique is proposed for the fabrication of plastic electronics on curved surfaces, enabling the preparation of plastic films with freely designed shapes.
Medical devices that can fit through tiny holes in the body and expand into designed shapes on demand would be invaluable, says laparoscopic surgeon Frederick Finelli at George Washington University Medical Center in Washington, D.C.
The forms take the designed shapes (bags, bolsters, mattresses, or shuttering) under the pressure of pumped concrete mixes or cement mortars.
In a brief statement, the digital artist admits she concocted the botanical works as a symbol of admiration for the "perfectly designed shapes of nature and the joy of diversity, reflective of how every woman can feel toward herself".
The bone construct was formed by ceramic particles of designed shapes captured into a flexible polymeric 3DF matrix (3DFM).
