Objective Summary

Develop and demonstrate architected energy dissipation structures with rigid responsiveness at large tensile, compressive, and shear strains, but capable of conformability to surfaces of complex topographies and other fluid-like behaviors in response to small strains.

The full objective, description, Phase I, II and III requirements and evaluation criteria are in the official topic on DSIP.
