Increasing the revenue from lignocellulosic biomass: Maximizing feedstock utilization.

abstract：:The natural selection and the evolutionary optimization of complex shapes in nature are closely related to their functions. Mechanostabilization of shape of biological structure via morphogenesis has several beautiful examples. With the help of simple mechanics-based modeling and experiments, we show an important caus...
