A procedure for characterizing the deformation process of a regular cellular structure under
static loading conditions is presented. Three different topologies with similar relative …

Sports concussions are a public health concern. Improving helmet performance to reduce
concussion risk is a key part of the research and development community response. Direct …

The paper presents a new approach for failure modeling of a cellular structure manufactured
with a 3D printing technology. For this purpose, the honeycomb topology was designed and …

Highlights•Cognitive roots of parametric design thinking are explored.•Consideration of
topology is proposed for enhanced and smarter design solutions.•Non-manifold topology is …

Ice hockey has one of the highest concussion rates in sport. During player-to-player
collisions, the most common concussive scenario, helmets have been shown to offer limited …

American football athletes are exposed to a high number of head impacts of varying severity
throughout the course of regular play. The sport has a high rate of concussions, despite …

This paper focusses on demonstrating the effectiveness of our new code at producing
curved, formerly planar structures that comprise complex internal architecture. This …
