Sometimes some seriously interesting research can be done with very simple materials. Some new research from MIT and École Polytechnique
studies the deformation of a rolling rubber band[*]. The faster the band moves, the more it deforms. Eventually the opposites come together, stick and stop the rolling.

[*] You have no idea how hard it was for me to not type
rubber binder. It just rolls and bounces off the tongue in a nicer way.
