Here is a new material capable of behaving like a liquid under low pressure, then solidifying instantly upon impact.

These materials, known as polycatenated architected materials (PAMs), are made up of interlocking rings or cage-like ...

实验结果显示，PAMs能够根据施加的应力在流体和固体状态之间切换。周文杰解释说，在剪切应力下，PAMs表现得像水一样“零阻力”，因为其内部组件像链条一样相互滑动；而在压缩下，这些结构则变得完全刚性，表现出固体的特性。

Based on the interlocking structure of chainmail, this material has all the best parts of both solids and liquids.
