Abstract
Hierarchical Microlattices In article number 2206024, Huajian Gao, Xiaoyan Li, and co-workers design and fabricate a new class of truss-plate-hybrid hierarchical lattices, which exhibit elastic isotropy and enhanced modulus and strength, outperforming all the existing truss-based hierarchical lattices. This work exemplifies a route to harnessing hierarchical design principles to create architected materials with desired mechanical properties.
