Deskripsi
Nacre structure is used as inspiration in the design of impact resistant materials yet natural nacre is overcome by high impact speed attacks from predators. Here, the authors perform a range of testing and demonstrate superior energy dissipation of nacre-like structures at low impact velocities which is lost at higher impact velocities.
