3-dimensional lattice truss structure composed of helical wires and method for manufacturing the same

Manufacturing method of three-dimensional porous light-weight structures including a truss structure in which regular octahedrons and cuboctahedrons are combined, wherein the formation of the truss structure in which the regular octahedrons and the cuboctahedrons are combined comprises:

• (a) forming plural two-dimensional Kagome planes by arranging plural helical wires in parallel in first to third axial directions on one plane;
• (b) arranging the plural two-dimensional Kagome planes at a designated interval in parallel in a direction perpendicular to the planes;
• and
• (c) forming the truss structure in which the regular octahedrons and the cuboctahedrons are combined by respectively inserting plural helical wires in fourth to sixth directions into the intersections of the helical wires in the three axial directions arranged on the plural two-dimensional Kagome planes,
• wherein the helical wires in the first to third axial directions have an azimuth angle of 60 degrees with respect to one another,
• wherein the helical wires in the fourth to sixth axial directions have an azimuth angle of 60 or 90 degrees with respect to the helical wires in the three directions arranged at the intersections, and have an azimuth angle of 54.7 degrees with a plane formed by a first axis to a third axis,
• wherein the wires in the four directions including the wires in the two axial directions in-plane and the wires in the two axial directions out-of-plane pass through the respective intersections of the helical wires.
