How to Model (CAD) a modified TPMS Lattice Structure (Mechanical Metamaterial) in SolidWorks.

The cad modeling was done with Solidworks 2024. The use of this mechanical metamaterial is advantageous for applications that require energy absorption and energy damping. You can request an STL file through my LinkedIn account. In addition, the article mentioned can be accessed using the link below:

I have 3D-printed this mechanical metamaterial with PLA through my additive manufacturing (3D Printing) channel. If you are interested in the 3D printing process, you can watch the video through the link below:

Perfect this lecture sir

Sorry for my late answer, thanks for your comment and support

So weldon sir

[@Sal-DEM]

Thank you sir

Sir after designing this structure , I took the stl file to cura slicing software and it says due to mesh problem my model cannot be printed accurately. How do I mesh this model?

The Problem is that you need to combine all patterned unit-cells to one solid, how to do it? go to your insert menu, features, and use combine command, chose all of your lattices from the body tree, and done, the structure is now printable, if you have any problems contact me on LinkedIn, and don't forget to share the printed structure with me ;)
