Mathematicians Uncover Soft Cells, a New Class of Shapes in Nature
Researchers have unveiled a new class of shapes called soft cells, which are common in nature. These shapes, characterised by their rounded corners and unique tessellation properties, can fill space without gaps. Found in structures such as nautilus shells and onions, soft cells minimise structural weaknesses, suggesting that nature favours these forms for their effic...
