Porous/multi-cell structures are widely used in practical engineering due to their excellent
energy absorption capacity and lightweight. In recent decades, as an important member of …

Honeycombs are ultra-light materials with outstanding mechanical properties, which mainly
originate from their unit cell configurations rather than the properties of matrix materials …

Distinguished capabilities of cellular solids as high-performance energy absorbers can be
enhanced by engineering their underlying architectures. In this study, we classify different …

A series of novel bionic honeycombs (bio-honeycombs) are proposed by incorporating the
microstructure of the beetle elytra intersection unit into the regular hexagonal honeycomb …

Hierarchical materials born of variable natural cellular and intricate architecture are
demonstrated to have the potential to achieve outstanding mechanical properties, thus make …

In order to improve the energy absorption capacity of the honeycomb, a combined auxetic
honeycomb is designed in this paper. By using the double-inclined walls replacing the …

This paper aims to develop lightweight high-performance auxetic structures for protective
applications such as blast and impact energy absorption. In this study, novel auxetic …

Multi-cell tubes have been widely used in vehicle engineering for their excellent energy
