National University of Singapore (NUS) physicists have developed a method of converting fish scale waste into a versatile material with dual functionalities—encryption of sensitive information and ...

The team's findings have been published in Nature: Scientific Reports: "Transition delay using biomimetic fish scale arrays", and in the Journal of Experimental Biology: "Streak formation in flow over ...

Chances are, you can't think of many uses for fish scales. Neither can the fisheries industry, which is why it disposes of great quantities of the things every year. According to scientists from ...

A new research study has revealed that fish scale arrays generate a streaky base flow on the surface of the animal which yields important clues into reducing drag - the aerodynamic force that opposes ...
