Most mall visitors probably wouldn’t expect to find a giant Möbius strip, particularly one disguised as a public bench, sprawled across a courtyard. The Möbius strip (or band) is a remarkable, ...

The Möbius strip or Möbius band is a surface with only one side and only one boundary component. It has the mathematical property of being non-orientable. It is also a ruled surface. It was ...

Sometimes, the most humble things are the most difficult to fathom. Take the Mobius strip, a simply configured mind bender that continually amazes. It is sometimes introduced as a question to young ...

In 1977, two mathematicians created a conjecture that proposed the minimum size a paper strip needed to be in order to form an embedded strip. Although they proposed an aspect ration of 1.73 (or √3), ...

You have most likely encountered one-sided objects hundreds of times in your daily life—like the universal symbol for recycling, found printed on the backs of aluminum cans and plastic bottles. This ...

Physicists have created something similar to a Moebius strip of moving energy between two vibrating objects, opening the door to novel forms of control over waves in acoustics, laser optics, and ...

A short section of carbon nanotube built from scratch forms a tiny Möbius strip – a one-sided surface that results from a band with a twist in it. You would imagine you could just salami slice a ...

University of Warwick scientists have shown how to tie knots in liquid crystals using a miniature Möbius strip made from silica particles. By tying substances like this in knots, the researchers hope ...
