A unit cell for a lattice structure includes eight unit trusses disposed at vertices of the unit cell. A single unit truss is disposed at a centroid of the unit cell. Each of the nine unit trusses includes fourteen struts. Lattice structures are commonly used to connect various loads within a volume of space. Most such structures, however, have a rigid definition for their topology, and are unable to conform to shape or load directions. Additionally, conventional lattice structures are homogeneous, having dimensions and properties that are consistent throughout. These constraints, generally imposed for ease of manufacturing and assembly, prevent the development of highly robust and efficient structures, and limit the potential for multi-functional applications. |
