Abstract

In this paper, novel micro-architectures with X-type lattice unit cell (namely, face-centered cubic (FCC), and X-type) are constructed and prepared by additive manufacturing technology. The compression behaviors of micro-architectures are explored in detail by experimental measurement and theoretical prediction. It is found that the strength of FCC micro-lattice structure is higher than that of the X-type micro-lattice structure with the same relative density. The X-type microlattice structure exhibits a zero Poisson’s ratio during compression deformation. In addition, the compressive strength and energy absorption efficiency of proposed micro-architectures shows a higher advantage over other previously cellular materials in a map for material selection.
