Tailoring the Compressive Behavior of Tetra-Chiral Auxetic Structures through FDM Process Parameters
Abstract: This research evaluates how fused deposition modeling (FDM) fabrication process parameters affect the compressive behavior of tetra-chiral auxetic structures created from Polylactic Acid (PLA). Auxetic materials have a number of useful properties, including reversible deformation and high-energy absorbing capabilities, which are beneficial to creating ultra-lightweight structural, protective, and shock-resistance designs. Among the available auxetic topologies, the tetra-chiral configuration is particularly attractive for engineering use, because its rotation-dominated node–ligament deformation gives …
