Abstract
Lattice structures have shown tremendous prospects in engineering fields, because of the ultralight, strong and toughness properties. In this paper, a novel configuration of lattice structure (GSIBCC) inspired by the hierarchical skeleton system of glass sponges is proposed. The new configuration of the unit cell is based on modifying the inner cross struts of the body-centered cubic (BCC) lattice, by considering the double diagonal reinforcements and hybridization of unit cells. The compression properties and deformation mechanism of the GSIBCC lattice structure are compared with BCC, OCT (Octet) and other glass sponge inspired lattices. A multi-objective optimization method is established, for maximizing the specific energy absorption (SEA) and simultaneously reducing the compression strength. The novel GSIBCC lattice exhibits superior specific energy absorption than BCC, OCT, and other glass sponge inspired lattices. For example, GSIBCC shows maximum 145.06% improvement (=0.124) of SEA with respect to BCC, and maximum 117.4% improvement (=0.124) of SEA with respect to OCT. The novel lattice exhibits the whole deformation type and obvious second stress reinforcement effect. Besides, the mechanical properties of GSIBCC are further improved using the multi-objective optimization. The reported biomimicry design strategy, deformation and failure mechanism, and multi-objective optimization method will be beneficial for enriching the lattice system and promoting the multifunctional applications of lattice structures in engineering fields.
