Abstract Lattice structures have attracted extensive attention in the field of engineering materials due to their characteristics of lightweight and high strength. This paper combines topology optimization with additive manufacturing to investigate how pore shape in Triply Periodic Minimal Surface (TPMS) structures affects mechanical properties and energy absorption performance. The periodic lattice structures (Triangle lattice, rectangle lattice and Rectangle lattice) and aperiodic mixed structures are designed, including a variety of lattice structures such as circle-circle and triangle-triangle (CCTT), triangle-triangle and rectangle-rectangle (TTRR), circle-circle and rectangle-rectangle (CCRR), triangle-circle-circle-triangle (TCCT), rectangle-triangle-triangle-rectangle (RTTR) and rectangle-circle-circle-rectangle (RCCR). The anisotropy of… More >
