Effective design and simulation of surface-based lattice structures featuring volume fraction and cell type grading
In this paper we present a numerical investigation into surface-based lattice structures with the aim of facilitating their design for additive manufacturing. We give the surface equations for these structures and show how they can be used to tailor their volume fractions. Finite element analysis is...
