Study of cellular structures built from self-similar models and repeatable structures manufactured by FDM/FFF technology

Abstract

Appropriate recursive formulas were obtained for generating repeatable and self-similar cellular structures obtained from PLA using the FDM/FFF method. The H1s, H2s self-similar models show mechanical self-similarity relationships based on simulation and compression test. In addition, the H1s models show higher displacement values than the H1i recurrent models. For the results of the H2s models, it is not conclusive whether they show higher displacement values.
