摘要

This research presents a new design method for lightweight, energy-absorbing, hybrid lattice structures of triply periodic minimal surfaces. Traditional diamond (D) and gyroid (G) lattices are hybridized with varying weights to create a novel structure that combines their advantages. An Al-Cu-Mg-Y alloy fabricated via laser powder bed fusion with ultrahigh compressive ductility is used to prepare the lattices. Results show that the D6G4 lattice (60 wt.% D + 40 wt.% G) exhibits a broader load-bearing region and an interlaced grid arrangement aligned with the maximum shear stress direction at 45°. This configuration effectively disperses shear stress into other directions, thereby improving the ultimate compressive strength and plateau stress. Consequently, the D6G4 lattice demonstrates superior energy absorption performance.
