“…Recent advances in additive manufacturing allow parts of high complexity, such as cellular solids (Gibson and Ashby, 1998) and lattice structures (Gorguluarslan et al , 2016), to be built in relatively short time scales, high qualities and affordable costs comparing with conventional manufacturing processes. State of the art 3D-printing techniques have enabled engineers to fabricate tailor-made structures for diverse applications from biomimetic-based applications, for instance, the fabrication of fish armors (Porter et al , 2016) and bone tissue implants (Murr et al , 2010; Arafat et al , 2013; Domingos et al , 2014), to other novel engineering applications, for instance, the fabrication of wind turbine sandwich panels (Thomsen, 2009; Jones, 2016), reconfigurable structures (Haghpanah et al , 2016; Ebrahimi et al , 2017) and lattice-based structures (Gorguluarslan et al , 2017). Because of the large impact and wide range of applications, the design of lattice-based structures for implementation in the components of engineering parts has seen a rapid development during the past few years (Moongkhamklang et al , 2010; Yan et al , 2012; Vigliotti and Pasini, 2012; Vigliotti and Pasini, 2013; Hosseinabadi et al , 2017; Gorguluarslan et al , 2017).…”
