Abstract
In this study, a new method for generating cellular materials with improved physical and mechanical characteristics is proposed. The mechanical properties of products based on ABS-polymer with topologies, the prototypes of which are isoelectronic surfaces of a number of crystalline substances, are investigated by the method of computer simulation. As an example, in this study, we choose carbon in the crystal structure \(Im\bar {3}m,\) since its isoelectronic surface is closest in shape to the known topologies of triply periodic minimum energy surfaces (TPMESs). As a result of the study using Autodesk Inventor Professional, the distribution of mechanical stresses, and the appearance of deformed products at various values of the applied mechanical stress are obtained. As a result of the study, strong physical and mechanical characteristics of samples with the proposed geometry are found.
