Effect of microstructure on the mechanical and damping behaviour of dragonfly wing veins
Insect wing veins are biological composites of chitin and protein arranged in a complex lamellar configuration. Although these hierarchical structures are found in many ‘venous wings' of insects, very little is known about their physical and mechanical characteristics. For the first time, we ca...
