Compressive Behavior of Pyramidal, Tetrahedral, and Strut-Reinforced Tetrahedral ABS and Electroplated Cellular Solids

Fused deposition modeling combined with electroplating provides a novel manufacturing methodology for building low relative density engineered cellular topologies. Here the mechanical performance of tetrahedral, pyramidal, and strut‐reinforced tetrahedral cellular solids manufactured from multiphase...

More Information
Summary:Fused deposition modeling combined with electroplating provides a novel manufacturing methodology for building low relative density engineered cellular topologies. Here the mechanical performance of tetrahedral, pyramidal, and strut‐reinforced tetrahedral cellular solids manufactured from multiphase nickel‐copper‐ABS is studied. The novel processing and geometric optimization places these engineered topologies into an unoccupied location in the material universe.

A special thanks to Brian Hairfield for his assistance in running the experiments. Also we would like to acknowledge Sean Wise of Repliform for accommodating our electroforming needs and giving much insight into the electroforming process.
