Improved mechanical performance of quasi-cubic lattice metamaterials with asymmetric joints

Abstract In this paper, we propose a simple method for the modification of the unit cells in the lattice metamaterials that provides an improvement of their impact strength. The idea is based on the introduction of small mutual offsets of the interconnected struts inside the unit cells. In such way,...
