Abstract:It is well established that the introduction of additive manufacturing in various domains has produced significant technological leaps due to the advantages over other manufacturing techniques. Furthermore, additive manufacturing allows the design of parts with complex internal structures (e.g., lattice, honeycomb) to achieve lightweight or other mechanical properties. This paper presents a computational model (integrated into a programable algorithm) designed to generate complex internal structures, using tre… Show more
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.
