Figure 3.
A unit cell design with brass mass, ligaments, stiffeners, and truss-like springs is presented.The multi-view layout presents a unit cell constructed from Nylon 12 with an internal brass mass. The Overview view shows overall dimensions of 54 millimetres by 54 millimetres by 47 millimetres. The Top View identifies horizontal stiffeners and horizontal ligaments surrounding the central mass. The Cross-section View highlights truss-like springs, diagonal stiffeners, and vertical ligaments supporting and constraining the brass mass. The arrangement illustrates the structural components used to control the dynamic response of the unit cell.

Schematic overview (left), top view (middle), and cross-sectional view (right) of the 3D-printed unit cell fabricated from Nylon 12 plastic. The unit cell features two horizontal truss-like springs, eight horizontal ligaments, four vertical ligaments, four horizontal, and two diagonal stiffeners, and an internal brass mass
