Fishnet Statistics for the Strength Distribution of Nacre-like Biomimetic and Architected Quasibrittle Materials

Description:

The staggered (or imbricated) lamellar ``brick-and-mortar" nanostructure of nacre endows nacre with strength and fracture toughness values exceeding by an order of magnitude those of the constituents, and inspires the advent of new robust biomimetic materials. While many deterministic studies clarified these advantageous features in the mean sense, a closed-form...
