Abstract

AbstractLattice structures with low density tend to localize under compressive loading. The localizations start in a single cell band due to buckling of the beams and lead to compaction of the cells. To identify an appropriate discretization and to determine the influence of damage in an elasto‐plastic material behavior two simple load cases are analyzed with the finite element (FE) method. Simulations of an axial loaded beam in the post‐buckling regime with and without damage are carried out. In addition, a triangular cell under compression with different discretizations is analyzed.
