Progress in Bioinspired Dry and Wet Gradient Materials from Design Principles to Engineering Applications

Summary: Nature does nothing in vain. Through millions of years of revolution, living organisms have evolved hierarchical and anisotropic structures to maximize their survival in complex and dynamic environments. Many of these structures are intrinsically heterogeneous and often with functional grad...
