报告内容：With the technical progresses, architectured materials are possible to be designed and manufactured with consideration of structure functionality and performance requirements. Using combination of multiple materials, macro-architectured materials could adaptively strengthen cellular structures, leading to light-weight and high-performance designs. This seminar covers the following topics:
(1) Development of macro-architectured materials;
(2) Engineering applications of macro-architectured materials;
(3) Industrialization and Commercialization of innovative macro-architectured materials in China.
