Interesting, How does this integrate these?
Algorithm for 2D-to-3D Engineering Integrates Art, Nature, Science

Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania School of Engineering and Applied Science (Penn Engineering) and the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command’s Army Research Laboratory have developed what they are calling a universal algorithm that permits two-dimensional materials to retain their lightness and durability when converted into three-dimensional (3D) structures. The algorithm allows hard materials to keep their mechanical strength after cutting by mimicking the structure of nacre, mollusks' natural shell coating. The algorithm can generate a computational map of cuts that are optimized for stacking, ensuring they never overlap with one another to compensate for necessary defects; fortifying tabs further bolster mechanical strength.
