Controlled Disorder Enhances Resistance in 3D Printed Mechanical Metamaterials
A study published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences Nexus by researchers from Penn Engineering, the University of Pennsylvania School of Arts & Sciences, and Aarhus University shows that incorporating controlled disorder into the structure of certain materials can enhance their resistance to cracking. The findings underscore the potential to advance mechanical metamaterials—engineered […]
