Obsessed with the animated logo for Instron that they place in their videos. Instron makes equipment for testing material properties and got their start in tensile testing, that is, pulling very precisely on stuff and seeing what happens.

A slingshot is retro technology. A slingshot as powerful that it can shoot through concrete is future technology. This is a fun video to watch

#Micro #filaments are usually about 7 nm in #diameter and #made up of #two #strands of #actin. Microfilament #functions #include #cytokinesis, #amoeboid #movement, #cell #motility, #changes #in #cell #shape, #endocytosis and #exocytosis, #cell #contractility, and #mechanical #stability. #Microfilaments are #flexible and #relatively #strong, #resisting #buckling by #multi #piconewton #compressive #forces and filament #fracture by #nanonewton #tensile #forces.
