Procedural metamaterials (IMAGE) Massachusetts Institute of Technology Caption Researchers from MIT and the Institute of Science and Technology Austria have created a technique to include many different building blocks of cellular metamaterials into one, unified graph-based representation. They used this representation to create a user-friendly interface that an engineer can utilize to quickly and easily model metamaterials, edit the structures, and simulate their properties.
