Researchers use color-changing fibers to test knot strength
Fewed by - Muzammil Zafar
In a groundbreaking study, researchers led by MIT's Vishal Patil have utilized fibers that change colors when placed under varying amounts of strain to test the strength and durability of various kinds of knots. While knots have been used by humans for millennia, little is known about the mathematical interactions between the various levels of strain utilized in different knots, which this study explored with great success.
