A novel manufacturing strategy for bio-inspired cellular structures

This paper presents a novel manufacturing method for cellular materials with a graded porosity distribution. The motivation for creating a gradient of porosity in materials has been inspired by nature and aspires to mimic natural structures so their intrinsic advantages (e.g., optimised mechanical p...
