Determinación del comportamiento bajo cargas de compresión de un material celular fabricado mediante manufactura aditiva por estereolitografía

Abstract

Nowadays, cellular materials have become one of the most promising materials because they have several applications in fields such as aeronautics, aerospace, biomedical, and the military industries. For this reason, several investigations have been carried out to improve manufacturing techniques or the materials used for them. Ones of these studies about this issue is the paper titled: "Design for Additive Manufacturing of Structural Elements with Cellular Materials Using Voronoi Diagrams and Delaunay Triangulations: Biological and Structural Applications," written by Fahir Castañeda. His paper proposes a new efficient way to manufacture this kind of materials by additive manufacturing, in such a way that the size and the number of pores were bigger in the higher stress zones than in the lower stress zone. in this paper the models obtained in the previously mentioned article will be tested by FEA simulation and laboratory compressive test to check if those models are viable in larger works implemented in the future.
