AB  - A new triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) structure mimicking the 
      microstructure of Great Spotted Woodpecker's cranial bone was designed, 
      fabricated and tested in this study. It was found that the designed structures 
      acquired better mechanical performance compared to the unit structures applied in 
      heterogeneous porous scaffolds. The wall thickness mimicking the woodpecker's 
      spongy bone and the TPMS surface structure were two contributors to the good 
      mechanical performance of new designed bionic structures.
