Natural materials boast remarkable mechanical performances in some cases unmatched by their synthetic counterparts, and for this reason, they have become an inspiration for the development of new materials. In highperformance natural materials such as nacre, bone, or teeth, stiffness and toughness are achieved with the staggered microstructure, where stiff inclusions of high aspect ratio are em...

High-manganese austenitic steel has been developed as a new cryogenic for application in liquified natural gas (LNG) storage and fuel tanks, with improved fracture toughness safety at temperatures. Generally, the decreases lower temperatures; therefore, requires high to prevent unstable fractures. This study conducted ductile tests 30-mm-thick high-manganese evaluated its applicability LNG tank...
