Preloaded Interlocking Metasurfaces
Technology Summary
Preloaded Interlocking Metasurfaces (PIMs) are a new class of high performance mechanical joints that store internal preload during assembly, dramatically increasing strength, stiffness, and energy absorption. Unlike traditional interlocking metasurfaces, PIMs use a built-in over-center mechanism to lock components into a prestressed...
