(a) CTE plotted against Young’s modulus39; and (b) CTE versus normalized strength (ultimate strength for Metals and Polymers; modulus of rupture for Ceramics; tensile strength for Composites)40. The points for the Octet cells are obtained by varying either the skew angle for a given relative density (0.05) or vice versa. Relative density ranges considered in the charts for the Octet lattice concepts: 0.02 < ρ* < 0.25 for the Iso-CTE Octet, and 0.02 < ρ* < 0.60 for the Aniso-CTE Octet.
