Fiber-Reinforced Composite Sandwich Structures by Co-Curing with Additive Manufactured Epoxy Lattices

  • Johannes Austermann,
  • Alec J. Redmann,
  • Vera Dahmen,
  • Adam L. Quintanilla,
  • Sue J. Mecham and
  • Tim A. Osswald

In this paper, a new process of joining additive manufactured (AM) lattice structures and carbon fiber-reinforced plastics (CFRPs) to manufacture hybrid lattice sandwich structures without secondary bonding is investigated. Multiple variations of lat...
