Not according to the article, the mechanics are structural. That said, I downloaded the 'cube' picture that was the banner and the cube does not use the structure described in the article. That makes me a bit curious.
The article goes out of the way to talk about the tubular structure that is bisected by a solid structure. And yet the cube has only tubes, and where the tubes are unfinished at the edges, the tubes appear to have an internal bisection.
One of the fun things is that you absolutely could not injection mold this :-).
Generating it as an infill would be interesting. I'm generating some cubes with CAD (since that is easy to do) that printed at 100% infill will (aka no guessing on the slicer's part) will let me try their cube structure, the paper's suggested structure, and others. I'm going to guess they patented it (could be wrong but most university research seems to go for patents) so it might not be possible? to put it into an infill library without dealing with that.
