Compression behavior of FCC- and BCB-architected materials: theoretical and numerical analysis

The aim of this work is to investigate the mechanical behavior of architected materials mimicking a crystal microstructure. The initial collapse strength of the architected materials is predicted by limit analysis, and the post-collapse response is theoretically obtained, considering the elastic effect and large deformation. The unit cell of body-centered block (BCB)-architected materials is defined using two parameters: the angle null null null...
