We investigated through fully atomistic molecular dynamics simulations, the mechanical behavior (compressive and tensile) and energy absorption properties of two families (primitive (P688 and P8bal) and gyroid (G688 and G8bal)) of carbon-based schwarzites. Our results show that all schwarzites can be compressed (with almost total elastic recovery) without fracture to more than 50%, one of them can be even remarkably compressed up to 80%. One of the structures (G8bal) presents negative Poissons ratio value (auxetic behavior). The crush force efficiency, the stroke efficiency and the specific energy absorption (SEA) values show that schwarzites can be effective energy absorber materials. Although the same level of deformation without fracture observed in the compressive case is not observed for the tensile case, it is still very high (30-40%). The fracture dynamics show extensive structural reconstructions with the formation of linear atomic chains (LACs).

Schwarzites are crystalline, 3D porous structures with stable negative curvature formed of sp2-hybridized carbon atoms. These structures present topologies with tunable porous size and shape and unusual mechanical properties. In this work, we have in
vestigated the mechanical behavior under compressive strains and energy absorption of four different Schwarzites, through reactive molecular dynamics simulations, using the ReaxFF force field as available in the LAMMPS code. We considered two Schwarzites families, the so-called Gyroid and Primitive and two structures from each family. Our results also show they exhibit remarkable resilience under mechanical compression. They can be reduced to half of their original size before structural failure (fracture) occurs.
Schwarzites are porous crystalline structures with Gaussian negative curvature. In this work, we investigated the mechanical behavior and energy absorption properties of two carbon-based diamond schwarzites (D688 and D8bal). We carried out fully atom
istic molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The optimized MD atomic models were used to generate macro-scale models for 3D-printing (PolyLactic Acid (PLA) polymer filaments) through Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM). Mechanical properties under uniaxial compression were investigated for both the atomic models and the 3D-printed ones. Mechanical testings were performed on the 3D-printed schwarzites where the deformation mechanisms were found to be similar to those observed in MD simulations. These results are suggestive of a scale-independent mechanical behavior that is dominated by structural topology. The structures exhibit high specific energy absorption and crush force efficiency ~0.8, which suggest that the 3D-printed diamond schwarzites are good candidates as energy-absorbing materials.
Helical amorphous nanosprings have attracted particular interest due to their special mechanical properties. In this work we present a simple model, within the framework of the Kirchhoff rod model, for investigating the structural properties of nanos
prings having asymmetric cross section. We have derived expressions that can be used to obtain the Youngs modulus and Poissons ratio of the nanospring material composite. We also address the importance of the presence of a catalyst in the growth process of amorphous nanosprings in terms of the stability of helical rods.
We report first principle calculations of electronic and mechanical properties of few-layer borophene with the inclusion of interlayer van der Waals (vdW) interaction. The anisotropic metallic behaviors are preserved from monolayer to few-layer struc
tures. The energy splitting of bilayer borophene at $Gamma$ point near the Fermi level is about 1.7 eV, much larger than the values (0.5--1 eV) of other layered semiconductors, indicating much stronger vdW interactions in metallic layered borophene. In particular, the critical strains are enhanced by increasing the number of layers, leading to much more flexibility than that of monolayer structure. On the one hand, because of the buckled atomic structures, the out-of-plane negative Poissons ratios are preserved as the layer-number increases. On the other hand, we find that the in-plane negative Poissons ratios disappear in layered borophene, which is very different from puckered black phosphorus. The negative Poissons ratio will recover if we enlarge the interlayer distance to 6.3 $mboxAA$, indicating that the physical origin behind the change of Poissons ratios is the strong interlayer vdW interactions in layered borophene.
Schwarzites are 3D crystalline porous materials exhibiting the shape of Triply Periodic Minimal Surfaces (TPMS). They possess negative Gaussian curvature, created by the presence of rings with more than six sp2-hybridized carbon atoms. Recently, new
routes to their synthesis have been proposed. Due to its foam-like structure, schwarzites are interesting for mechanical energy absorption applications. In this work, we investigate through fully atomistic reactive molecular dynamics the mechanical response under ballistic impacts of four structures from primitive (P) and gyroid (G) families (two structures within each family). The two structures in the same family differ mainly by the ratio of hexagons to octagons, where this ratio increases the flatness of the structures. Although the penetration depth values are higher in the flatter structures (P8bal and G8bal), the absorbed kinetic energy by them is considerably higher, which yields them a better energy-absorption performance.
