The origami inspired design of polyhedral cells of truss core panel

Truss core panel (TCP), inspired by origami engineering, is a novel lightweight structure with periodical pyramid truss core cells in regular plane tilling patterns. Such panels are increasingly seen in a range of application form civil infrastructure to vehicle components, and show same bending stiffness and better aspects in shear strength and in-plane compressive load than honeycomb panel The geometric structure of TCP can be easily adjusted...
