This article shows the results of the application of parametric design process in the digital fabrication of cellular solids inspired structures by 3d printing in model scale. Two proposal will be presented. Both are devised according to the idea of creating resistant wireframe cellular structure with zero-waste of printing material. The methodology was based in the application of three steps design science research into two different parametric patterns: diagrid and voronoi. It is shown the analytic description of both processes with 3d printed models. The conclusion is that the diagrid pattern offers better control of the design than the voronoi.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
