Multi-scale modeling and mechanical performance characterization of stingray skeleton-inspired tessellations

•All shark/ray skeletons comprise cartilage covered in mineralized tiles (tesserae).•Bio-realistic, parametric, computer models of tesserae allow performance tests.•Models argue only some structural features affect tesserae rigidity.•Structures are predicted to guide stresses, prevent damage, facili...
