MetaMesh: A hierarchical computational model for design and fabrication of biomimetic armored surfaces

Many exoskeletons exhibit multifunctional performance by combining protection from rigid ceramic components with flexibility through articulated interfaces. Structure-to-function relationships of these natural bioarmors have been studied extensively, and initial development of structural (load-beari...
