Multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT), coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM). MWNTs are cylindrical fullerene molecules (nanotubes) with multiple outer layers

Carbon nanotubes. Computer artwork of carbon nanotubes, also known as buckytubes, showing the hexagonal carbon structure. These are a type of fullerene, a structural type (allotrope) of carbon

Fullerene molecules. Fullerenes are structural types (allotropes) of carbon. The three molecules at centre are buckminsterfullerenes (buckyballs)

DNA nanotechnology, artwork
DNA nanotechnology. Conceptual computer artwork of DNA nanotechnology, showing a carbon nanotube (transparent) and a molecule of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid, centre)

Nanotube technology, artwork
Nanotube technology. Conceptual computer artwork of cylindrical fullerene molecules (carbon nanotubes). The carbon atoms are arranged in a structure consisting of interlinking hexagonal rings

The Rotor Ship Buckau, 1924
Photograph of the experimental Rotor ship Buckau, on sea trials, 1924. Anton Flettner equipped the 680 ton schooner, Buckau, with two rotating cylindrical towers to test his Flettner rudder

The New Darracq motor car engine
A unique (and unsuccessful) engine with a single rotating cylindrical sleeve to induct and remove gases. It should have been smooth and silent but was perhaps too wacky to succeed
