Leveraging Ultra-fast Optics to Capture Dynamic Responses of Mechanical Metamaterials
MIT Lincoln Laboratory 3 Forbes Rd, Lexington, MA, United StatesThis seminar will discuss advanced ultrafast optics techniques for probing dynamics of nanostructured mechanical metamaterials, by Prof. Carlos Portela. Mechanical metamaterials across length scales—from nanometers to centimeters—have demonstrated unique mechanical properties enabled by a variety of 3D material morphologies. Significant advances in our understanding of these materials have pointed to structure-property relations that lead to […]
