Mechanical behavior of Al–Si10–Mg gyroid surface with variable topological parameters fabricated via laser powder bed fusion

Metallic cellular materials with triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) topologies have great potential for lightweight and multi-functional applications. However, the effect of level-set values, which can control the topology of TPMS, on the performance of TPMS have not been fully understood becaus...
