Non-cuttable material inspired by nature

Prof. Stefan Szyniszewski - Durham University (UK)

The talk will introduce a cellular structure made of aluminium and ceramics, which resembles micro-structures of sea creature shells and grapefruit peel. We called the material Proteus as it modifies its internal structure under different loads. The talk will discuss the properties and applications of this newly developed material technology.

Chaired by Prof. Luiz Vieira Junior - University of Campinas (Unicamp)
