Mechanical metamaterials are materials that emulate mechanical properties through structuring at smaller size-scales.
They are in contrast to optical metamaterials, electrical metamaterials and other non-mechanical metamaterials.
Known and existing cases of (passive) mechanical metamaterials are:
- Chainmaiile
- Textiles
Future mechanical metamaterials based on gemstone like compounds (in particular based on base materials with high potential)
Many unusual properties are possible.
