3D printed meta-sandwich structures: Failure mechanism, energy absorption and multi-hit capability
A new class of lightweight and 3D printable architected sandwich structures, named as meta-sandwich structures, has been introduced. These lightweight sandwich structures, which have been made of mechanical metamaterials as the core, show many advantages such as high stiffness-to-weight ratio and hi...
