3D printing has turned another, previously theoretical, structure into a solid object, and this time it is capable of deflecting bullets. Inspired by the structure of tubulanes, first predicted in 1993, a team of researchers at Rice University have managed to create lightweight materials with high ballistic impact resistance and load‐bearing capabilities “regarded as,” the […]
