Strategies for functionally graded lattice structures derived using topology optimisation for additive manufacturing

A number of strategies that enable lattice structures to be derived from Topology Optimisation (TO) results suitable for Additive Manufacturing (AM) are presented. The proposed strategies are evaluated for mechanical performance and assessed for AM specific design related manufacturing consideration...
