Architectured materials in engineering and biology: fabrication, structure, mechanics and performance [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
Ever-increasing requirements for structural performance drive the research and the development of stronger, tougher and lighter materials. Specific microstructures, heterogeneities or hybrid compositions are now used in modern materials to generate high performance structures. Pushed to the extreme, these concepts lead to architectured materials, which contain highly controlled structures at length scales which are intermediate between the microscale and the size of the component. This review focuses on dense architectured materials made of building blocks of well-defined size and shape, arranged in two or three dimensions. These building blocks are stiff so their deformation remains small and within elastic limits, but their interfaces can channel cracks and undergo large deformations. These basic principles lead to building blocks which can slide, rotate, separate or interlock collectively, providing a wealth of tunable mechanisms. Nature is well ahead of engineers in making use of architectured materia...
