Dynamic response of graded tensegrity-inspired
cellular lattices with extremal properties.

The project TIGeR (Tensegrity-Inspired Graded metamateRials) is dedicated to studying the dynamic response of graded tensegrity-inspired cellular metamaterials with extremal properties, aimed at applications in various vibration isolation systems. The main focus is two aspects: 1) development of an algorithm for describing the dynamic response of the investigated lattices, accounting for different properties of specific sub-regions of graded cellular systems; 2) experimental testing of the dynamic response of graded tensegrity-inspired lattices produced with the use of additive manufacturing technology under different types of dynamic loads.
