Abstract

The finite element simulation of compression test of a lattice structure, made of Ti-6-4, produced by additive technology, was implemented. The cellular material was designed from the intersecting cylindrical struts with the orthogonal arrangement of horizontal and vertical struts. The distribution of equivalent stresses was estimated. The most loaded were the struts, the axis of which was parallel to the axis of loading. The maximum equivalent stresses were observed at the junction of struts. The analysis of the cross-section of the struts revealed that equivalent stresses in the central regions of the struts were about 50% less than those on the surface.
