The effects of five different types of imperfection (fractured cell walls, missing cells, cell wall waviness, cell wall misalignment, and non-uniform cell wall thickness) on actuation performance are numerically investigated for the Kagome lattice and two of its variants: Doub ...
The Kagome structure has been shown to be a highly suited micro-architecture for adaptive lattice materials, in which selected lattice members are replaced by actuators aiming to create shape morphing structures. It is the combination of in-plane isotropy, high stiffness and l ...
The structural symmetry of a material can be manifested at a multitude of length scales such as spatial arrangement of atoms in a crystal structure, preferred orientation of grains in a polycrystalline material, alignment of reinforcing particles/fibers in composites or the mi ...
