A glass walkway suspended hundreds of feet above the ground. Cylindrical aquarium viewing walls made of glass and holding back tons of water. Glass staircases that appear to float in midair. If you're ...
Between two steep cliffs in China’s Hebei province stretches the Hongyagu Bridge, a shudder-inducing structure built from thousands of panels of transparent glass. The bridge stretches for 1,600 feet ...
The structural origin of the slow dynamics in glass formation remains to be understood owing to the subtle structural differences between the liquid and glass states. Even from simulations, where the ...

Scientists have found a way to 3D print "glass" to create structures impossible to make with regular techniques
MIT scientists created a way to 3D print glass-like structures without extreme temperatures. The special mixture used provides good structural integrity and diverse design possibilities. Researchers ...
It’s very difficult to create a large piece of glass without flaws. But the researchers knew how to make very small flawless pieces. As long as glass is less than a micrometer thick, it’s almost ...
Have a fear of heights? Then these glass wonders are not for you. All of these structures feature crystal clear glass, offering unobstructed views of some of the world's most scenic locations. From ...
Material scientists from Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, the University of California, Irvine and Edwards Lifesciences have developed a way to 3D print nanoscale glass structures at much cooler ...
What if construction materials could be put together and taken apart as easily as LEGO bricks? Such reconfigurable masonry would be disassembled at the end of a building’s lifetime and reassembled ...
