Similarities of the Mechanical Responses of Body-Centered Cubic Lattice Structures with Different Constituent Materials Under Compression

This study investigates the compression behaviors of body-centered cubic (BCC) lattice structures with three different constituent materials, i.e., polylactic acid (PLA), AlSi10Mg and polyamide 12 (PA12), fabricated by fused deposition modeling (FDM), selective laser melting (SLM) and multi-jet fusion (MJF) techniques, respectively. The numerical models of finite element analysis (FEA) with beam elements and isotropic hardening material...
