When rain falls on the seed of an Erodium flower, its coiled body unwinds, twists and buries itself into the soil. This movement — powered by nothing but water and stored potential energy — is the kind of natural intelligence that fascinates UC Berkeley mechanical engineering professor Lining Yao.
In this 101 in 101 video, which challenges Berkeley’s experts to condense their field of study into 101 seconds, Yao offers a crash course in “morphing matter” — materials and structures that transform in response to environmental stimuli.
Inspired by a childhood fascination with pine cones, whose scales “magically open up” when dry, she recalls, Yao now leads Berkeley’s Morphing Matter Lab, where researchers study how natural forces interact with materials and apply those insights to engineering design and emerging technologies.
