Optimisation of three-dimensional hierarchical structures with tailored lattice metamaterial anisotropy

This paper presents a new framework for optimising three-dimensional hierarchical structures with tailored relative densities and anisotropy of lattice metamaterials. The effective properties of the lattice metamaterials are characterised with numerical homogenisation. Artificial neural network base...
