Overall, the results align with the computational ones in terms of failure prediction. In this study, the benchmark results of 3D printed structures were analyzed and tested for their fracture threshold. To simulate seismic conditions as best as possible, weightage was used in which the weight (N) was applied 75% in the z-direction and 25% of it was oscillated in the horizontal direction by a custom testing unit. Such testing units were sourced from the Mechanical Testing Shock Tests and customized within the University of Delaware. The 3D printing aspect of the study was conducted to observe the feasibility of printing parts with varying diameters, ranging from 2 millimeters (about 0.08 in) to 16 millimeters (about 0.63 in). The results of the testing showed that the 16-millimeter structure was highly deformable and was able to return to its original position under 117.6 N of weightage, while the 8-millimeter structure showed off-trend resistance to deformation and buckling, absorbing a large amount of energy in the 78.4 N case. This is because the 8-millimeter case is not exactly an auxetic material, so it is subject to little elasticity in its moment when being compressed. In Fig. , a 1-hour failure occurrence of the 12-mm case was provided. Through this, we can observe how failure often occurs at the inflection points of the structure, meaning the very ends of the outwards pointing structures that produce the honeycomb geometry. Also, observe how the interface between the honeycomb geometry and the circular surfaces is also a contingent point of failure. This opportunity to observe the continual degradation of the ISMER lattice with seismic forces finally allowed for durability testing; however, it must be noted that due to the usage of PLA, shorter times should be expected.
