Abstract Scope |
Additive manufacturing enables the fabrication of complex lattice structures and presents engineers opportunities to design geometric features at the sub-millimeter scale. Among the various lattice topology categories, plate-lattices have been gaining popularity because of their excellent strength to weight ratio. In this research, laser powder bed fusion was used to fabricate AlSi10Mg plate-lattice structures which were tested in uniaxial compression to characterize mechanical response. Stress-strain data obtained from compression tests were used to calculate lattice mechanical and energy
absorption properties. The mechanisms of deformation are explained by connecting concepts from solid mechanics to observed lattice deformation modes. Results indicate that AlSi10Mg plate-lattice structures exhibit high strength and specific energy absorption, making them excellent candidates for energy absorption applications. |
