Title: Resonant ultrasound spectroscopy measurement and modeling of additively manufactured octet truss lattice cubes

Journal Article · · NDT & E International

In this work, the elastic characteristics of additively manufactured Ti-5553 octet truss lattice cubes were examined using resonant ultrasound spectroscopy (RUS) techniques and correlated to X-ray computed tomography measurements of strut continuity. RUS models and measurements identified an outlier lattice possessing lower effective modulus despite larger effective density. Here, experimental measurements of density and effective Young's modulus were treated as input parameters in a homogenous anisotropic continuum model. The continuum model exhibited good agreement with experimental RUS measurements, thus confirming the potential for a simplified approximation of the octet truss lattice.
