Abstract |
With the continuous advancement of additive manufacturing (AM) technology, Lattice
structures have become a research hotspot due to their excellent lightweight characteristics and multifunctionality. In this study, topology optimization and selective laser sintering (SLS) technology are
innovatively combined to design eight novel lightweight lattice structures (FCL, VL, EML, FQL,
VFCL, VFQL, EFCL, and EFQL) by eight complex boundary load conditions, which breaks through
the dependence of the traditional combinatorial method on geometrical intersection points. Mean-while, the typical BCC structure is introduced as a reference. Quasi-static compression experiments
were carried out on the prepared topological lattice structures in order to deeply investigate their
mechanical properties and energy absorption. The results show that the mechanical properties of VL
and VFQL structures are better than the other topological lattice structures, and the FCL and VFQL
structures have the most energy absorption per unit volume. The EFCL structure has similar mechanical properties as the VL structure, but the EFCL structure is more stable than the VL structure. All
topology-optimized structures show better mechanical properties and energy absorption than BCC
structures, which fully demonstrates the feasibility of choosing topology-optimized designed lattice
structural units. This study provides theoretical basis and practical guidance for the design and fabrication of high-performance polymer lattice structures. |
