Failure mechanisms in rapid-prototyped polymer microtrusses

Optimally designed microtrusses typically contain a complex internal geometry that can be difficult to fabricate from high- strength materials. One way of synthesizing this type of architecture is through a combination of rapid prototyping and electrodeposition wherein the polymer core acts as a template for a high-strength nanometal. Net-shape manufactu...
