Journal ArticleDOI
Biological materials: Structure and mechanical properties
TL;DR: In this article, the basic building blocks are described, starting with the 20 amino acids and proceeding to polypeptides, polysaccharides, and polyprotein-saccharide.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural Biological Materials: Critical Mechanics-Materials Connections
TL;DR: Structural bio-inspired materials design makes use of the biological structures by inserting synthetic materials and processes that augment the structures' capability while retaining their essential features.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biological materials: Functional adaptations and bioinspired designs
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors conduct an analysis connecting the structure (nano, micro, meso, and macro) to the mechanical properties important for a specific function, and address how biological systems respond and adapt to external mechanical stimuli.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure and mechanical properties of crab exoskeletons.
TL;DR: The structure and mechanical properties of the exoskeleton (cuticle) of the sheep crab (Loxorhynchus grandis) were investigated and it was found that the exocuticle (outer layer) is two times harder than the endocuticles (inner layer).
