Robust substrate anchorages of silk lines with extensible nano-fibres
Jonas O. Wolff, Daniele Liprandi, Federico Bosia +2
Living systems are built of multiscale-composites: materials formed of components with different properties that are assembled in complex micro- and nano-structures. Such biologica…
Hierarchical auxetic and isotropic porous medium with extremely negative Poisson's ratio
Maryam Morvaridi, Giorgio Carta, Federico Bosia +4
We propose a novel two-dimensional hierarchical auxetic structure consisting of a porous medium in which a homogeneous matrix includes a rank-two set of cuts characterised by diffe…
Band gap enhancement in periodic frames using hierarchical structures
Vinícius F. Dal Poggetto, Federico Bosia, Marco Miniaci +1
The quest for novel designs for lightweight phononic crystals and elastic metamaterials with wide lowfrequency band gaps has proven to be a significant challenge in recent years. I…
Correlation between slip precursors and topological length scales at the onset of frictional sliding
Gianluca Costagliola, Federico Bosia, Nicola M. Pugno
Understanding the interplay between concurrent length scales is a fundamental issue in many problems involving friction between sliding interfaces, from tribology to the study of e…
Design and characterization of cochlea-inspired tonotopic resonators
Vinicius F. Dal Poggetto, Federico Bosia, David Urban +3
The cochlea has long been the subject of investigation in various research fields due to its intriguing spiral architecture and unique sensing characteristics. One of its most inte…
Toughening and mechanosensing in bone: a perfectly balanced mechanism based on competing stresses
M. Fraldi, A. Cutolo, A. R. Carotenuto +3
Bone is a stiff and though, hierarchical and continuously evolving material that optimizes its structure to respond to mechanical stimuli, which also govern growth and remodeling p…
Topologically engineered 3D printed architectures with superior mechanical strength
R. S. Ambekar, B. Kushwaha, P. Sharma +4
Materials that are lightweight yet exhibit superior mechanical properties are of compelling importance for several technological applications that range from aircrafts to household…
Optimized structures for vibration attenuation and sound control in Nature: a review
F. Bosia, V. Dal Poggetto, A. S. Gliozzi +8
Nature has engineered complex designs to achieve advanced properties and functionalities through evolution, over millions of years. Many organisms have adapted to their living envi…
