A team of MIT researchers has used color-changing fibers to capture a better understanding of knots, reports Caroline Delbert for Popular Mechanics. Using a computational model, “the MIT team could hypothetically use their research to create entirely new knots that are as secure as humanly possible,” Delbert explains.
