Parametric Design and Mechanical Characterization of a Selective Laser Sintering Additively Manufactured Biomimetic Ribbed Dome Inspired by the Chorion of Lepidopteran Eggs by Alexandros Efstathiadis, Ioanna Symeonidou, Emmanouil K. Tzimtzimis, Dimitrios Avtzis, Konstantinos Tsongas, Dimitrios Tzetzis

“…Quasi-static compression testing was carried out in conjunction with finite element analysis (FEA) to investigate the deformation patterns and stress dispersion of the models. The biomimetic ribbed dome appears to significantly dampen the snap-through behavior that is observed in typical solid and lattice domes, decreasing dynamic stresses developed during the response and preventing catastrophic failure of the structure. …”

DEEP CRUSTAL STRUCTURE AND MODEL OF NEORCHAEAN EVOLUTION OF THE NORTH AMERICAN CRATON by M. V. Mints, T. B. Afonina

“…The Neoarchaean North American Craton is one of a series of similar phenomena that occurred ~2.75 Ga ago in a number of continental regions. The most important features, repeated to a certain degree in tectonic units of this type, are: (1) synchronous formation between 2.79 and 2.58 Ga; (2) mainly intracontinental development; (3) the prevalence of oval‐shaped synformal tectonic structures of different ranks with some form of concentric zoning; (4) high‐temperature magmatism (usually with the participation of enderbite‐charnockites and gabbro‐anorthosites) and metamorphism of the granulite facies; (5) a frequently repeated combination of high‐grade (granulite and high‐ temperature amphibolites facies) and low‐ or moderate‐grade (greenschist and epidote‐amphibolite facies) meta‐ morphic rocks; (6) the lower‐crust granulite‐basaltic layer that had formed and was deformed at the final stage of endogenic activity; (7) a thick lithosphere (the lithospheric keel reaches a depth of 250–350 km).…”
