Catastrophic collapse of materials and structures is the inevitable consequence of a chain reaction of locally confined damagefrom solid ceramics that snap after the development of a small crack to metal space trusses that give way after the warping of a single strut.
In a study published this week in Advanced Materials, engineers at the University of California, Irvine and the Georgia Institute of Technology describe the creation of a new class of mechanical metamaterials that delocalize deformations…
