Mycelium based composites have not yet been widely adapted as construction replacements for bricks, synthetic foams, or wood. However, their potential for use has been studied in laboratories, and the results from experiments comparing bio-composites and current materials show that bio-composites do have some advantages over traditional materials.
The fracture energy of a living building material compared with two controls: one with no cyanobacteria, and one with no cyanobacteria and a high pH. [2]Self-replicating concrete is produced using a mixture of sand and hydrogel, which are used as a growth medium for synechococcus bacteria to grow on.
Mycelium bricks were tested in 2014 with the construction of the Hi-fi tower, built at the Museum of Modern Art of New York by Arup and Living architecture. [21] Monolithic structures such as El Monolito Micelio [ 69 ] or the BioKnit pavilion, [ 70 ] were developed instead to grow mycelium either on-site or in a growing chamber in a single piece.
Minecraft: Story Mode is an episodic point-and-click video game developed and published by Telltale Games, based on Mojang Studios' sandbox video game Minecraft. The first five episodes were released between October 2015 through March 2016 and an additional three episodes were released as downloadable content (DLC) in mid-2016.
Fine Mycelium is a patented technology by MycoWorks that attempts to influence cellular structures for increased strength and durability. The company uses the term to refer to both their process and the resulting materials intended for the fashion, footwear, automotive, and decor industry.
Mycelium is an important food source for many soil invertebrates. They are vital to agriculture and are important to almost all species of plants, many species co-evolving with the fungi. Mycelium is a primary factor in some plants' health, nutrient intake and growth, with mycelium being a major factor to plant fitness.
Fly ash brick (FAB) is a building material, specifically masonry units, containing class C or class F fly ash and water. Compressed at 28 MPa (272 atm) and cured for 24 hours in a 66 °C steam bath, then toughened with an air entrainment agent, the bricks can last for more than 100 freeze-thaw cycles.
A bedrock mortar (BRM) is an anthropogenic circular depression in a rock outcrop or naturally occurring slab, used by people in the past for grinding of grain, acorns or other food products. [1] There are often a cluster of a considerable number of such holes in proximity indicating that people gathered in groups to conduct food grinding in ...
