Abstract
Our conventional synthetic materials are isotropic substances, like metals, glass, ceramics, polymers. The special suitability for their structural application is achieved by morphological design of such isotropic materials and by combination of such material parts in macroscopic scale. Typical demonstration of this design principle is the frame of an older bridge (Fig.1) or the 100 years old tour d’Eiffel. If we consider the more advanced design strategy with such conventional isotropic materials, like in a modern bridge, the morphology of the isotropic material parts has changed, steel in form of multiwire cables replaces heavy steel carrier beams. But the basic principle remained the same (Fig.2).
