Abstract Triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) shell-lattices are attracting increasing attention because of their exceptional mechanical and geometric characteristics. Additive manufactured TPMS structures using thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) have great application potential in energy absorptions, for which the mechanical properties can be conveniently adjusted to meet diverse requirements. Nevertheless, there is a need for further improvement in the stability and adjustability of energy absorption capacity. This is due to the significant impact of the buckling effect and induced stress fluctuations when the structure is subjected to compression. To alleviate the buckling effect and tune the capability of… More >
