Boundary conformal design of laser sintered sandwich cores and simulation of graded lattice cells using a forward homogenization approach

Laser sintering enables the production of large and complex thin-walled structures. Based on a stiffness evaluation and the manufacturability, a design approach for the additive manufacturing of large, complex, multi-curved sandwich structures was investigated through the creation of lattice structu...
