Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including medium-encoded computer program products, for designing three dimensional lattice structures include, in one aspect, a method including: obtaining a mechanical problem definition including a 3D model of an object; generating a numerical simulation model for the 3D model of the object using one or more loading cases and one or more isotropic solid materials identified as a baseline material model for a design space; predicting performance of different lattice settings in different orientations in the design space using a lattice structural behavior model in place of the baseline material model in the numerical simulation model; and presenting a set of lattice proposals for the design space based on the predicted performance of the different lattice settings in the different orientations; wherein the lattice structural behavior model has been precomputed for the different lattice settings, which are generable by the 3D modeling program.
