2. Honeycomb structure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honeycomb_structure

   A honeycomb-shaped structure provides a material with minimal density and relative high out-of-plane compression properties and out-of-plane shear properties. [1] Man-made honeycomb structural materials are commonly made by layering a honeycomb material between two thin layers that provide strength in tension. This forms a plate-like assembly.

3. Shade sail - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shade_sail

   Shade sail over playground in Australia. A shade sail − or somewhat more precise a textile sunshade sail or a textile sun protection sail − is a device to create outdoor shade based on the textile basic technology that can be found in a ship's sail. [1] Shade sails use a flexible membrane tensioned between several anchor points. While ...

4. Window blind - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Window_blind

   Various window blind styles. A window blind is a type of window covering. [1] There are many different kinds of window blinds which use a variety of control systems. A typical window blind is made up of several long horizontal or vertical slats of various types of hard material, including wood, plastic or metal which are held together by cords that run through the blind slats.

5. Sandwich-structured composite - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandwich-structured_composite

   The core material is normally of low strength, but its greater thickness provides the sandwich composite with high bending stiffness with overall low density. 2)Open- and closed-cell-structured foams like Polyethersulfone , polyvinylchloride , polyurethane , polyethylene or polystyrene foams, balsa wood , syntactic foams , and honeycombs are ...

6. Hexagonal lattice - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexagonal_lattice

   The honeycomb point set is a special case of the hexagonal lattice with a two-atom basis. [1] The centers of the hexagons of a honeycomb form a hexagonal lattice, and the honeycomb point set can be seen as the union of two offset hexagonal lattices. In nature, carbon atoms of the two-dimensional material graphene are arranged in a honeycomb ...

7. Waffle fabric - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waffle_fabric

   An example of waffle fabric. Waffle fabric, also known as honeycomb fabric, has raised threads that form small rectangles. It can be made by either weaving or knitting. Waffle weave is a further exploitation of plain weave and twill weave which produces a three-dimensional effect. The combination of warp and weft floats creates the structure.
