Abstract
En 中文
In this paper, the mechanical analysis of an advanced Body Centred Cubic (BCC) lattice cell has been performed through a homogenisation procedure to obtain an equivalent set of mechanical properties. The mechanical analyses have been carried out with the use of ANSYS software and an original ANSYS Parametric Design Language (APDL) subroutine has been developed for the introduction of the double periodic boundary conditions. The Finite Element Method (FEM) is used for the mechanical model, and 3D elements with reduced integration has been employed to guarantee an accurate description of the lattice geometry. Different BCC cell configurations have been considered: standard metal BCC cell, metal BCC cell with waved struts, standard metal composite BCC cell. Depending on the configuration, the homogenised materials showed isotropic or orthotropic properties. For the evaluation of all the engineering constants, uniaxial traction test and in-plane shear test have been simulated along different loading directions. A parametric study has been conducted varying the struts diameter, the struts waviness and the thickness ratio of the composite struts. Finally, the homogenised materials have been tested through the mechanical analysis of sandwich panels with lattice core; a comparison between sandwich panels with homogenised core and sandwich panels with exact lattice cells has been carried out. The parametric study can be useful for the tailoring and optimisation analysis of an advanced component.
