This is a training grant awarded by NASA to the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) to conduct research on digital lattice materials for reconfigurable space structures. The award aims to characterize the fracture and fatigue properties of these advanced materials, which could enable lighter, stronger, and more reliable structures for future deep space exploration missions. The $122,461.48 grant supports experimental investigation into the failure mechanisms, fracture toughness, and fatigue performance of cuboctahedral digital lattice materials. This includes studying the influence of macroscopic toughening features on the materials' properties, as well as evaluating their degradation when reconfigured. The research directly supports NASA's efforts to increase the reliability of ultra-lightweight structures through novel materials approaches, which is critical for designing appropriate health monitoring strategies and enabling material recyclability in space applications. This training grant does not have a set-aside designation. As a leading public research university, UC Berkeley has a strong track record of receiving prime contract awards and subcontracts from federal agencies like NASA and the Department of Defense to support a wide range of R&D in areas like space physics, semiconductor design, and national security.
