Our previous work reported a novel lattice structure composed of modified face-centered cubic (modified FCC) cells with crossing rods introduced at the center of each cell. In this work, the proposed modified FCC lattice is further investigated to ascertain its compression behaviors under different loading rates. For this purpose, numerical simulations were carried out for compressing the two-dimensional and three-dimensional modified FCC lattice structures with different loading rates, and to compare their deformation modes and energy absorption capacity under different loading rates. In addition, lattice specimens were fabricated using selective laser melting technology and quasi-static compression experiments were performed to validate the finite element simulations. The results indicate that the proposed modified FCC lattices exhibit better load-bearing capacity and energy absorption than the traditional FCC lattices under different loading rates. Under high-speed loading, the modified FCC structure is less susceptible to buckling, and the length ratio of the central cross-rod corresponding to maximum energy absorption capacity is larger.
