We study the dynamics of a flexible crystalline membrane with hexagonal pattern. The relaxational dynamics towards equilibrium is described through a Brazovskii-Helfrich-Canham Hamiltonian model. The coupled dynamics between the hexagonal structure and the deformation modifies the elastic properties of the membrane. In this paper, we explore the properties of this coupling by analyzing the structure factor of the deformation out of the plane of the considered membrane system.
