Manipulating localized geometric characteristics in multistable energy-absorbing architected materials
Optimizing global geometric features of unit cells and their spatial arrangements have been well studied in multistable energy-absorbing architected materials (MEAMs), yet their optimized geometries could lead to highly complex features that require expensive additive manufacturing techniques. In this study, we introduce a generalized design strategy to adjust localized thickness variation of thin curved beams in MEAMs. We numerically identify the optimal non-uniform modulation parameter for maximizing energy trapping capacity across MEAM cells, arrays, and cylinders. Then, quasi-static compression and drop impact tests on MEAM cylinders with non-uniform designs are conducted to prove the proposed method's effectiveness in achieving equivalent energy-absorbing abilities with the same material consumption. Overall, we believe that our easy-to-implement strategy can be applied to any type of MEAM with slender beam elements and embedded into energy-absorbing devices and structures.
期刊介绍:
Thin-walled structures comprises an important and growing proportion of engineering construction with areas of application becoming increasingly diverse, ranging from aircraft, bridges, ships and oil rigs to storage vessels, industrial buildings and warehouses.
Many factors, including cost and weight economy, new materials and processes and the growth of powerful methods of analysis have contributed to this growth, and led to the need for a journal which concentrates specifically on structures in which problems arise due to the thinness of the walls. This field includes cold– formed sections, plate and shell structures, reinforced plastics structures and aluminium structures, and is of importance in many branches of engineering.
The primary criterion for consideration of papers in Thin–Walled Structures is that they must be concerned with thin–walled structures or the basic problems inherent in thin–walled structures. Provided this criterion is satisfied no restriction is placed on the type of construction, material or field of application. Papers on theory, experiment, design, etc., are published and it is expected that many papers will contain aspects of all three.
