“…In the present paper, we focus on the strut-based artificial cellular structures – hereafter referred to as lattice metamaterials 4 . Modern 3d-printing technologies allow to produce the lattice metamaterials with complex geometry of the unit cells that provides their unique mechanical properties such as the ultra-high and tailorable specific stiffness and strength 5 , 6 , high impact strength 7 – 9 and wide band gaps in the dynamic response 10 – 12 , negative Poisson’s ratio, thermal expansion or stiffness 13 – 15 , pronounced non-classical Cosserat-type and Mindlin-type macroscale behavoir 16 – 19 , etc. The design of the unit cells in the lattice structures usually defines the position, size and orientation of the struts to provide some desired topology and related macroscopic response such that the stretch-dominated behavior 20 – 22 , the quasi-isotropic averaged properties 23 , 24 , the prescribed anisotropy and the symmetric groups 25 , 26 or the functionally graded structure 27 , 28 .…”
