Elastic properties of architectured cellular materials and biological materials (equine hoof wall)
… modeling of the elastic response of a horse hoof wall. TPMS structures have smooth surfaces with no sharp corners making them promising candidates for superior mechanical properties materials. The horse hooves are highly impact-resistant biological structures. The goal of studying the TPMS …

Irradiation effects on geopolymer and additively manufactured 316H stainless steel and porosity in equine hoof wall
… steel (SS) for radiation resistance, and equine hoof walls serving as bioinspiration for impact-resistant materials designs. First, I explored a potassium-based geopolymer implanted with Ti+ ions to simulate neutron irradiation as a concrete alternative for nuclear facilities. …

The effect of loading upon hoof wall growth and hoof shape in the Thoroughbred foal
The hoof wall is adapted to take most of the weight-bearing of the foot and is anisotropic and homogeneous. Foals appear to be born with symmetrical paired feet which by maturity are frequently unequal in angle and width. They stand within minutes of birth subjecting the hoof wall to loading. Hoof …
