A new structure-property connection in the skeletal elements of the marine sponge Tethya aurantia that guards against buckling instability

We identify a new structure-property connection in the skeletal elements of the marine sponge Tethya aurantia. The skeletal elements, known as spicules, are millimeter-long, axisymmetric, silica rods that are tapered along their lengths. Mechanical designs in other structural biomaterials, such as n...
