Comparison of micro-lattice structures for energy absorption
Koban, Tomáš ; Vrána, Radek (referee) ; Červinek, Ondřej (advisor)
Additively manufactured metal micro-structures have great potential in energy absorption applications. The recent research in this field led to a much better understanding of failure behaviour of these micro-structures. This thesis focuses on comparison of energy absorption ability of strut-based micro-lattice structures manufactured by selective laser melting depending on their topology and basic material. Energy absorption of three types of lattice structures (BCC, BCCZ, GBCC) made from stainless steel 316L and aluminium alloy AlSi10Mg was examined. Specific energy absorption was used to compare the two materials. The results show that micro-lattice structures made from stainless steel outperform the aluminium ones in energy absorption ability. The highest amount of absorbed energy was measured for BCCZ structure. This thesis describes the failure mechanism of micro-lattice structures and offers a complex evaluation of energy absorption for both materials.
