Abstract:Advanced structure design for energy absorption is a long‐lasting pursuit due to its fascinating scientific merit in mechanics and important engineering application. Curves, a type of mathematical variation in geometry, are widely adopted in the biological system and biomaterial structures after long‐time nature evolution toward optimization and adaption. Inspired by nature, a novel type of tubular structure is designed with golden spiral curvature. With the variations in the hierarchy of the supporting spiral… Show more
