Compressive Behaviour of Aluminium Pyramidal Lattice Material-Filled Tubes

This study focuses on the uniaxial compressive behaviour of thin-walled Al alloy tubes filled with pyramidal lattice material. The mechanical properties of an empty tube, Al pyramidal lattice material, and pyramidal lattice material-filled tube were investigated. The results show that the pyramidal lattice material-filled tubes are stronger and provide greater energy absorption on account of the interaction between the pyramidal lattice material...
