Published in Nature Communications, researchers from St. Olaf College and Syracuse University built a computer made entirely of mechanical components that can perform simple computations without ...

Researchers have developed a kirigami-inspired mechanical computer that uses a complex structure of rigid, interconnected polymer cubes to store, retrieve and erase data without relying on electronic ...

“We typically think of memory as something in a computer hard drive, or within our brains,” says St. Olaf College Associate Professor of Physics Joey Paulsen. “However, many everyday materials retain ...
