👉 Cage engineering is an advanced field of materials science and engineering that focuses on designing and optimizing porous structures, often referred to as "cages," for various applications. These cages can be created from a wide range of materials, including metals, ceramics, polymers, and composites. The primary goal is to tailor the size, shape, and connectivity of the pores within these structures to achieve specific functional properties, such as enhanced mechanical strength, improved thermal and acoustic insulation, or increased surface area for catalytic reactions. By precisely controlling the microstructure of these cages, engineers can create materials with tailored properties that meet the demands of diverse industries, including aerospace, automotive, energy, and biomedical applications. This engineering approach leverages computational modeling and advanced fabrication techniques to optimize the performance of materials at the micro- and nanoscale levels.
