Fero-magnetic fluid is the stuff that Ferrari makes its car suspensions from. It's a fluid containing iron particles. When an electromagnetic force is applied to it, it tends to shape itself to the wave lines of the electromagnetic field. You can try something similar at home with some iron shavings on a plate, and a magnet underneath the plate. It's used in car suspensions because it can modify the stiffness of the ride almost instantly. Her's another use for fero-magnetic fluid, this time with beauty in mind, and less practical. Enjoy it!

This fantastic new active car suspension has amazed everyone. Not only that you don't feel speed bumps and hard corners, but you can do some "tricks" if you want to. Have a look at the demonstration video and see for yourself!

It was finally demonstrated how atoms arrange themselves inside the materials. This opens new possibilities for designing ultraresistant objects. Glass is a material called 'amorphous', whose atoms that is, are not disposed in a regular type structures crystal. The substance is not considered a solid but, rather, a liquid with very high viscosity. An international research team, led by Paddy Royall University of Bristol (Great Britain), in collaboration with Japanese and Australian scholars, is now able to demonstrate that during the solidification particles have in-shaped structures that prevent the icosahedron formation of crystals. Unlike solid crystalline form, in which the atoms are fixed to one another by chemical bonds into regular geometric structures, glass appears' solid 'just because the movement of each particle is physically prevented by the presence of other neighbouring atoms. The particles, that is, hinder each other. It was thus finally confirmed, with a simulation test, a 50 years old theory that explains many of the characteristics of this material and that could allow us to build, for example, non-crystalline metals much more resistant than traditional ones.
