TLDR
An organic scheme of the whole process of design, fabrication, experiments, models, models and image analyses of pantographic metamaterials is presented.
Abstract
In the last decade, the exotic properties of pantographic metamaterials have been investigated and different mathematical models (both discrete or continuous) have been introduced. In a previous publication, a large part of the already existing literature about pantographic metamaterials has been presented. In this paper, we give some details about the next generation of research in this field. We present an organic scheme of the whole process of design, fabrication, experiments, models and image analyses.

A Lagrangian Hencky-type non-linear model suitable for metamaterials design of shearable and extensible slender deformable bodies alternative to Timoshenko theory

TL;DR: It is proved that, also when shear deformation effects are of relevance, the enriched, yet simple, model and numerical computation scheme herein proposed can be profitably used for efficient structural analyses of non-linear mechanical systems in rather nonstandard situations.

In-depth gaze at the astonishing mechanical behavior of bone: A review for designing bio-inspired hierarchical metamaterials:

TL;DR: The main aim of this survey consists in providing the appropriate knowledge to mimic the deeply structured hierarchy of the bone tissue for synthesizing innovative and highly performing bio-inspired metamaterials.

Flexoelectricity and apparent piezoelectricity of a pantographic micro-bar

TL;DR: In this paper, a homogenized model of a pantographic bar considering flexoelectricity is discussed, and the effective stiffness properties of the homogenised bars are determined by the geometry of the structural elements and shear stiffness.
Journal ArticleDOI

Topology optimization of cracked structures using peridynamics

TL;DR: A robust and accurate approach based on the innovative coupling of Peridynamics (PD) (a meshless method) and topology optimization (TO), abbreviated as PD-TO, which can be an alternative and powerful tool in finding optimal topologies that can circumvent crack propagation and growth in two and three dimensional structures.

Anisotropic strain gradient thermoelasticity for cellular structures: Plate models, homogenization and isogeometric analysis

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a pair of two-scale plate models relying on the anisotropic form of Mindlin's strain gradient thermoelasticity theory for three-dimensional cellular plate-like structures with a triangular microarchitecture.

Porous, Crystalline, Covalent Organic Frameworks

TL;DR: Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have been designed and successfully synthesized by condensation reactions of phenyl diboronic acid and hexahydroxytriphenylene to form rigid porous architectures with pore sizes ranging from 7 to 27 angstroms.
