Failure modes. (a) Failure mode of a lattice made without tubes. The inset shows that failure occurs at the diagonal truss. (b) Failure mode of a lattice made with tubes with an outer diameter of 3Â mm. The inset shows that failure occurs at both the tube and the diagonal truss. (c) Failure mode of lattice made with tubes with an outer diameter of 8Â mm. Failure occurs at both the tube and the diagonal truss.
