Mechanical Properties and Energy Absorption Characteristics of Additively Manufactured Lightweight Novel Re-Entrant Plate-Based Lattice Structures

In this work, three novel re-entrant plate lattice structures (LSs) have been designed by transforming conventional truss-based lattices into hybrid-plate based lattices, namely, flat-plate modified auxetic (FPMA), vintile (FPV), and tesseract (FPT). Additive manufacturing based on stereolithography...

description In this work, three novel re-entrant plate lattice structures (LSs) have been designed by transforming conventional truss-based lattices into hybrid-plate based lattices, namely, flat-plate modified auxetic (FPMA), vintile (FPV), and tesseract (FPT). Additive manufacturing based on stereolithography (SLA) technology was utilized to fabricate the tensile, compressive, and LS specimens with different relative densities (ρ). The base material’s mechanical properties obtained through mechanical testing were used in a finite element-based numerical homogenization analysis to study the elastic anisotropy of the LSs. Both the FPV and FPMA showed anisotropic behavior; however, the FPT showed cubic symmetry. The universal anisotropic index was found highest for FPV and lowest for FPMA, and it followed the power-law dependence of ρ. The quasi-static compressive response of the LSs was investigated.
