Abstract:
Porous NiTi alloys have gained prominence in biomedical and aerospace applications owing to their exceptional specific strength and biocompatibility. In this study, inspired by the twin strengthening in metallurgy, the twin-oriented Gyroid TPMS lattice metamaterials were designed. The effects of twin-oriented design on the static mechanical properties, energy absorption capacity and fatigue properties of TPMS lattice metamaterials were studied by uniaxial compression and compression-compression fatigue tests. The results indicate that the twin-oriented design enhances the superelasticity, carrying capacity, energy absorption capacity and fatigue properties of the lattice metamaterials. TG design achieves a 32.2% enhancement in effective energy absorption capacity compared to conventional TPMS structures. Furthermore, increasing the number of ordered Gyroid unit cell arrangements at each coordinate in the spatial geometric coordinate system contributes to improved carrying capacity of the structure. Strengthened twin boundaries effectively suppress fatigue crack initiation and propagation across the twin-oriented surfaces. The optimized architecture significantly improves fatigue strength ratio and overall fatigue resistance. This strategic design prevents catastrophic failure under adverse loading while enabling controllable crack path formation. In this study, the mechanical responses and fatigue behaviors of TPMS lattice metamaterials are regulated by twin-oriented design for the first time, which provides a novelty insights for developing high-performance NiTi structures with tunable damage tolerance and excellent fatigue ability. © 2025 Elsevier Ltd
