Engineers Develop Stronger Cement Inspired by Human Bone Structure
Los Angeles CA (SPX) Sep 17, 2024
Inspired by the tough architecture of human bone, engineers at Princeton University have created a cement-based material that is 5.6 times more resistant to damage than conventional options. This bio-inspired design enhances the material's resistance to cracking and helps it avoid the sudden failures typical of brittle cement materials.
