Deformation-induced topological transitions in mechanical metamaterials and their application to tunable non-linear stiffening
Mechanical metamaterials are periodic lattice structures with complex unit cell architectures that can achieve extraordinary mechanical properties beyond the capability of bulk materials. A class of metamaterials is proposed, whose mechanical properties rely on deformation-induced transitions in nod...
