Summary: | The main objective of this research is to study the compression behaviour of a Novel bio-inspired lattice structure from the wing structure of one of the butterfly species named Papilio Xuthus. Two major parameters are chosen from the structure to make multiple designs that may cause changes in the behaviour of the structure among all available parameters. The parametric values required for the designs were calculated with the help of Response Surface Methodology (RSM) using Minitab software. The proposed designs are modelled in Autodesk fusion 360 modelling software, and 3D printed specimens of size 40x40x40 (all in mm) are fabricated by the Vat polymerization principle based on the chosen parameters. Then, the 3D-printed specimens were tested for compression using universal testing machine equipment. The test results obtained from the testing process were evaluated, and a lattice structure with better performance was compared with the honeycomb structure. |
