Measuring Tiny Fibers with Magnetism

Scientists are always looking for new ways to measure materials, especially when they are very small. In their 2025 paper, “Using magnetic torque for characterization of flexural rigidity of microfibers,” Dr. Artis Brasovs and Dr. Konstantin G. Kornev describe a clever new method for testing the stiffness of microfibers. Flexural rigidity is how much a […]
