Abstract

Highly compressible and stretchable lattice materials are perfectly suitable to be exploited in a range of cutting edge engineering applications such as low band-gap acoustic metamaterials, vibration absorbers, soft robotics, stretchable electronics and stent devices. Physics-based understanding and...
