Abstract:Effective thermal conductivity and Young's modulus of periodic unit cell geometries are widely studied in the literature. This paper compares and contrasts strut-based unit cells against surface-based unit cells obtained by subtraction of sphere from solid cube. In order to understand the reason for the difference in the behavior of effective thermal conductivity of surface-based and strut-based unit cell geometries and the difference in the behavior of Young's modulus of surface-based and strut-based unit cel… 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.
