Abstract
MaSMaker 2.0 aims to contribute to the computational design and fabrication of Triply Periodic Minimal Surface (TPMS) structures. This updated version expands the capabilities of the software in three aspects: (1) the repertoire of available TPMS structures, (2) the possibility of generating graded and hybrid TPMS prisms was added as a basic exploration tool, looking for more complex applications, and (3) introduces the functionality for recommending the resolution to build the TPMS structure depending on the Additive Manufacturing (AM) process to be used. The “isovalue” request has been replaced with a “Volume Fraction” request as a design variable, employing polynomial models derived from wide-ranging characterizations. AM recommendations come from analyzing ratios that consider cell size, cell type, and AM technology limitations to propose a design resolution. MaSMaker 2.0 combines mathematical precision and fabrication feasibility, empowering designers to seamlessly create and manufacture intricate TPMS structures.
