Computer-modeled body movements of a simulated worm (top) and a real worm (bottom). The graphs show body movement patterns over time for both worms (left). On the right, moving images show how closely ...

For millennia, humans have used knots for all kinds of reasons — to tie rope, braid hair, or weave fabrics. But there are organisms that are better at tying knots and far superior — and faster — at ...

California blackworms make a contribution to the math and physics of knot tying by demoing twisting motions that help them escape a tangled worm ball Anyone who’s grappled with jumbled headphones ...

Scientists have developed a new method to simulate the complex movements of animals with exceptional accuracy. The research team set out to solve a long-standing challenge in biology -- how to ...
