Snowflake-inspired and blink-driven flexible piezoelectric contact lenses for effective corneal injury repair by Guang Yao, Xiaoyi Mo, Shanshan Liu, Qian Wang, Maowen Xie, Wenhao Lou, Shiyan Chen, Taisong Pan, Ke Chen, Dezhong Yao, Yuan Lin

“…However, current equipment limitations and implementation complexities hinder its widespread adoption. Here, we propose a snowflake-inspired, blink-driven flexible piezoelectric contact lens that can convert mechanical blink motions into a unidirectional pulsed electric field for direct application to moderate corneal injury repair. …”

The 'snowflakes' of modern society: a qualitative investigation of female university students’ anxiety about adulting by Talbot, A, O'Reilly, M, Dogra, N

“…We note that the rhetoric of the snowflake is frequently invoked in lay discourse to characterise a generation of young people as overly sensitive. …”

A 'snowflake' geometrical representation for optimised degree six 3-modified chordal ring networks by Chien, Stephen Lim Een, Raja Maamor Shah, Raja Noor Farah Azura, Othman, Mohamed

“…Redundant nodes were also more easily found by using this representation. Furthermore, the ‘snowflake’ geometrical representation was proposed to illustrate the connectivity of nodes in CHR6o3 as well as to aid the proving of some properties involving its Hamiltonicity. …”

Effects of Hausdorff Dimension on the Static and Free Vibration Response of Beams with Koch Snowflake-like Cross Section by Didier Samayoa, Helvio Mollinedo, José Alfredo Jiménez-Bernal, Claudia del Carmen Gutiérrez-Torres

“…In this manuscript, static and free vibration responses on Euler–Bernoulli beams with a Koch snowflake cross-section are studied. By applying the finite element method, the transversal displacement in static load condition, natural frequencies, and vibration modes are solved and validated using Matlab. …”

Solid hydrometeor classification and riming degree estimation from pictures collected with a Multi-Angle Snowflake Camera by C. Praz, Y.-A. Roulet, A. Berne

“…A new method to automatically classify solid hydrometeors based on Multi-Angle Snowflake Camera (MASC) images is presented. For each individual image, the method relies on the calculation of a set of geometric and texture-based descriptors to simultaneously identify the hydrometeor type (among six predefined classes), estimate the degree of riming and detect melting snow. …”
