TL;DR: In this paper, the buckling and splitting of truss member was observed in the compressive and shear tests and no nodal failure was observed, and the predicted results showed that the mechanical behavior of the pyramidal lattice truss core sandwich panels depends on the relative density of core and the material properties of members.

TL;DR: In this article, a new method for fabricating carbon fiber composite pyramidal truss cores was developed based on the molding hot-press technique, where all the continuous fibers of composite are aligned in the direction of struts and thus, the truss structure can fully exploit the intrinsic strength of the fiber reinforced composite.

TL;DR: In this paper, the structural performance of sandwich panels with a carbon fiber pyramidal truss core was investigated for direct (pure) shear and three-point bending in the presence of different failure modes.

TL;DR: In this paper, low-velocity impact characteristics and residual tensile strength of carbon fiber composite laminates are investigated by experimentally and numerically using finite element software, ABAQUS/Explicit.

TL;DR: A review of recent progress in the development of advanced Micro-lattice materials can be found in this article, where the authors reviewed recent progress of such advanced materials in the fields of ultra-lightweight structures, thermal equipment, electrochemical devices, high absorption capacity and bio-repair materials.
