An international research team coordinated at KIT (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) has developed mechanical metamaterials ...

Researchers have created a metamaterial that stores energy more effectively, enabling advanced mechanical systems with ...

A team of international researchers has developed a groundbreaking class of mechanical metamaterials capable of storing and ...

“By defining a clever arrangement of the rods, we then integrated this mechanism into a metamaterial.” The scientists compare this mechanism to a classic bending spring, whose maximum deformation is ...

An international research team has developed mechanical metamaterials with a high elastic energy density. Highly twisted rods that deform helically provide these metamaterials with a high stiffness ...
