DOI: 10.1038/s41467-024-53850-w
Abstract: Materials scientists have taken a learn-from-nature approach to study the structure-property relationships of natural materials. Here we introduce a nature-inspired composite architecture showing a hierarchical assembly of granular-like building blocks with specific topological textures. The… read more here.
