Bioinspired algorithmic-driven design of additively manufactured composites
… years of evolution, it comes as no surprise that biological materials are identified as invaluable sources of inspiration in the search for new materials. Bone, teeth, and spider silk, to name a few, are high-performing biological composites that possess impressive mechanical properties unmatched …
