“I’ve been wearing bras for half my life, like many women, and they never really fit, [...] And one day, I was just like, why? This is ridiculous? How can anyone in the world define a woman’s bust in two variable?”https://t.co/lRm2HsOTxN#BraTheory #CalculusIsForBoobs https://t.co/kmryvZRL9N
Did you know the space suit Neil Armstrong wore on the moon was made by a bra manufacturer?"A division of the company that manufactured Playtex bras and girdles, ILC had engineers who understood a thing or two about rubber garments."https://t.co/gvQhQ1uFD7
Spacesuits are full-body bras."We want to achieve that same pressurization, but through mechanical counterpressure — applying the pressure directly to the skin, thus avoiding the gas pressure altogether. We combine passive elastics with active materials" https://t.co/go03J7CdyX
Next gen adaptive sports bra using kapton tape based carbon fiber to manipulate ferrofluid within microbladders.https://t.co/AW8JNMKS4I
Spent all night talking with @nsreed about weird things we could do to manipulate semen within our microscope platform.Then this shows up in my feed today. https://t.co/D0SQgBXkVO
We also figured out a way to adapt our diet to be able to use semen as an electrolyte for DIY Graphene based super capacitors. Decided we could make it out of a battery of @MonsterEnergy drink cans as a source of aluminum. https://t.co/y4tFRINdei
I like to work on things that have multiple applications. The idea of creating an air-pressure free microfluidic seminal fluid pump using magnets, lasers and origami? Would have direct applications in wearable haptic feedback and cyborg hugboxes.https://t.co/XEd3uhe3SP
Does anyone know if laser-induced graphene's "foamy" texture mean it would work as a base for a hydrogen fuel cell? https://t.co/MBWG6dr8zQ
Felt cute, might build a home made hydrogen fuel cell and super capacitor out of energy drink cans.https://t.co/TeczXkx3W5
"I have not yet learned how to use a capacitor bank like this safely..." is not something I like to hear. https://t.co/28R4YiAmM3
I figured out why graphene repels biofilm formation.https://t.co/ugOjmOorxl
It is because of rapid charge build up on the pointy bits.https://t.co/RgKTRm1ZOy
Tasting things and smelling things is one step away from seeing things.'Graphene-Silver-Induced Self-Polarized PVDF-Based Flexible Plasmonic Nanogenerator Toward the Realization for New Class of Self Powered Optical Sensor"https://t.co/Z4DvdYHhFRhttps://t.co/rbi6TsYjCr
I hear vapor deposition with mercury is kinda cool.https://t.co/7YGX9rl73V
Y'all wanna use quantum properties of water and graphene to generate quantum friction? https://t.co/ebIlLijtkr
