| description | Conventional energy-absorbing components have limited adjustability under complex working conditions. To overcome this limitation, we designed a bio-inspired sinusoidal metamaterial (BSM) inspired by the efficient energy-absorbing structure of the mantis shrimp jaw foot and 4D printed it based on shape-memory polymer (SMP). The effects of single-cell structural parameters and gradient design on its force–displacement curves and energy-absorbing properties were explored. Based on the shape memory effect of SMP, the BSM can obtain arbitrary temporary shapes under the combined effect of temperature and force, realizing locally controllable compression deformation and programmable mechanical properties of the BSM structure. This research has a broad application prospect in the field of energy absorption and energy management and provides new ideas for the design of smart structural materials. |
