Francisco López Jiménez is taking on an unusual research subject for an assistant professor in aerospace -- honeycombs. A faculty member in the Ann and H.J. Smead Department of Aerospace Engineering ...
High-resolution imaging of a honeycomb has revealed how honeybees construct the strong, complicated structure step by step 1. Made of wax, honeycombs are one of nature’s best-engineered structures — ...
Honeybees are nature’s tiny workers. Their fuzzy yellow and black striped bodies buzz between flowers, picking up pollen for their hives. They’re renowned for making honeycomb, a mass of hexagonal ...
From left, Francisco López Jiménez, Orit Peleg and graduate student Richard Terrile inspect the honeycomb in a bee hive. On a hot summer day in Colorado, European honeybees (Apis mellifera L.) buzz ...
A study explores comb-building behavior in honeybees. Honeybees construct perfectly hexagonal honeycombs but may encounter challenges in achieving this architecture. Using automated image analysis of ...
