snail-like

The sea creature, which they nicknamed the “mystery mollusk” because of its snail-like features, captivated them.

On the other hand, the snail-like open system is far more efficient.

For a recent study in Nature Electronics, the researchers used their new material to connect motors to power sources in two basic machines: a snail-like soft robot and a toy car.

Sometimes science advances at a snail’s pace, but in this case that’s a good thing: researchers have created a squishy material that combines polymers with liquid metal, demonstrated in a snail-like robot.

After 11 years of snail-like negotiations, the two governments sealed a U.S.-mediated deal Thursday in Naqoura, in south Lebanon, near the Israeli border.
