Multifunctional elastomers with tailored anisotropic response

Traditional engineering design focusses on the load-bearing capabilities of materials, and develops functionality by adding the structure. However, hybridising with functional materials allows non-load bearing capabilities to be integrated, that simplify the design. Material anisotropy can effect th...
