In this paper, we account for the research efforts that have been started, for some among us, already since 2003, and aimed to the design of a class of exotic architectured, optimized …
A review on models for pantographic fabrics, a new promising kind of metamaterials, is presented. We treat those models that are able to capture the peculiar effects conferred by …
Recently the exotic properties of pantographic metamaterials have been investigated, and various mathematical models (both discrete and continuous) have been introduced …
The development of additive manufacturing methods, such as 3D printing, allows the design of more complex architectured materials. Indeed, the main structure can be obtained by …
The problem of the synthesis of second gradient (meta) materials, via architectured microstructures made of micro-lattices, has been solved (Alibert et al., 2003; Seppecher et …

Mechanical metamaterials are microstructured mechanical systems showing an overall macroscopic behaviour that depends mainly on their microgeometry and microconstitutive …
Abstract 3D printing technology has opened application perspectives which were difficult to imagine only few years ago. In this paper, we show how it is possible to design and print …
