Periodic topological lattice with different indentation hardness on opposite surfaces

Different surface properties are needed simultaneously in many applications, especially under an indentation load or impact load. This study proposes one class of novel periodic topological mechanical metamaterials, 2D topological honeycomb structure and 3D topological lattice, whose opposite surfac...
