ABSTRACT
In this study, a semi-reentrant structure (SR) filled with different tubular structures, includ-
ing tube, triangular and rectangle structures were designed. The tubular structures were
perfectly assembled into semi-reentrant cells to avoid swaying in the semi-reentrant cell.
The geometric relations and relative density for these structures were established. For the
out-of-plane and in-plane compressions, SR filled tubular structures exhibited different de-
formation patterns compared to those of SR or pure fillers. A constraint effect was found
between the filler tubular and container SR. With fillers contained inside the SR structures,
the plateau stresses for three conditions were all promoted compared to those of SR. The
best out-of-plane compression resistance occurred in the SR filled rectangle which might be
caused by larger interaction areas between the SR and rectangular structures. The (specific)
energy absorption of the SR filled tube compressed out-of-plane was the largest. The peak
and plateau stress of the SR filled triangle was the largest compared to other structures
when compressed in plane due to stability of the triangle. It was found that the plateau
stress, energy absorption and specific energy absorption of SR filled triangle was the largest,
while that of SR filled rectangle was the lowest.
