Origami-inspired ‘transformer bots’

With only three active motors, a single cubed structure made of plastic can be transformed into over 1,000 configurations, according to NC State University research. Using a 3D printer, engineers at NC State have found a way to assemble up to 36 hollow, plastic cubes into what they’ve dubbed “transformer bots.”

Ask An Engineer: What is a hypersonic wind tunnel?

Engineering Communications spoke with the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering’s Dr. Venkat Narayanaswamy to learn about NC State’s new hypersonic wind tunnel

Engineering students stand around the new hypersonic tunnel. The tunnel test box and piping are painted in NC State red and is located in an industrial setting.

SCI NC Video Series

We’ve worked with Sci NC, the PBS NC show that highlights the latest science stories from North Carolina and across the nation, interviews leading scientists and shares fascinating demonstrations, to feature the amazing work happening in our College.
 
These segments, produced by Minnow Media in association with Alexander Isley, feature Nehemiah Mabry, an NC State civil engineering Ph.D. graduate and rising star in STEM-based media.
