Effective properties of the octet-truss lattice material
Abstract
The effective mechanical properties of the octet-truss lattice structured material have been investigated both experimentally and theoretically. Analytical and FE calculations of the elastic properties and plastic yielding collapse surfaces are reported. The intervention of elastic buckling of the struts is also analysed in an approximate manner. Good agreement is found between the predictions of the strength and experimental observations from tests on the octet-truss material made from a casting aluminium alloy. Moreover, the strength and stiffness of the octet-truss material are stretching-dominated and compare favourably with the corresponding properties of metallic foams. Thus, the octet-truss lattice material can be considered as a promising alternative to metallic foams in lightweight structures.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
