Resumo: | Interpenetrating Phase Composites (IPCs) is a class of composite materials with promising attributes, rendering them useful in applications where multiple distinct properties need to be optimized. Triply Periodic Minimal Surface (TPMS) structures are a class of lattice structures very attractive due to their continuous and smooth shell features. This dissertation focuses on the design, manufacture, and characterization of TPMS-based aluminium-alumina IPCs. Multiple ceramic TPMS structures with different geometries and volume ratios were designed and fabricated using an additive manufacturing technology - Digital Light Processing (DLP). Afterwards, these ceramic structures were filled with an aluminium alloy via investment casting, giving rise to aluminium-alumina IPCs. A global characterization was performed, including ceramics printability, shrinkage and mass loss; specimens’ morphology; chemical and crystalline characterization; density analysis and mechanical testing. Among the 60 experimental groups that were designed, 24 were considered for fabrication and further analysis, encompassing 3 TPMS structures (Schwarz P, Schwarz D and Gyroid) with 4 distinct volume ratios (12.5%, 15%, 17.5% and 20%) and 2 different unit cell numbers (2x2x2 and 3x3x3). Overall, DLP technology was found effective for producing these highly complex ceramic structures, with high surface quality. The sintered alumina structures presented a relative density of around 76.3% and a pseudo-ductile layer-by-layer failure behaviour, with Schwarz D TPMS exhibiting the highest compressive strength. Regarding the IPCs, the addition of aluminium significantly changed the compressive behaviour of the samples, presenting an energy absorption behaviour. The integration of the alumina phase into the aluminium alloy led to a substantial improvement on the compressive offset stress of 28.74% when compared to the theoretical value of the aluminium alloy. Schwarz D and Gyroid IPCs demonstrated similar mechanical behaviour while Schwarz P IPCs presented an inferior mechanical performance. |

As estruturas Triply Periodic Minimal Surface (TPMS) são uma classe de estruturas em treliça muito atrativas devido às suas características de superfície contínua e lisa. Esta dissertação concentra-se no design, fabrico e caraterização de IPCs de alumínio-alumina baseados em TPMS. Foram modeladas e fabricadas múltiplas estruturas cerâmicas TPMS com diferentes geometrias e rácios de volume, utilizando uma tecnologia de fabrico aditivo - Digital Light Processing (DLP). Posteriormente, estas estruturas cerâmicas foram preenchidas com uma liga de alumínio através de fundição por cera perdida, dando origem a IPCs de alumínio-alumina. Foi efetuada uma caraterização global, incluindo a capacidade de impressão, retração e perda de massa das cerâmicas; morfologia das amostras; caraterização química e cristalina; análises de densidade e ensaios mecânicos. Entre os 60 grupos experimentais desenhados, 24 foram considerados para fabrico e análise posterior, englobando 3 estruturas TPMS (Schwarz P, Schwarz D e Gyroid) com 4 rácios de volume distintos (12.5%, 15%, 17.5% e 20%) e 2 números de células unitárias diferentes (2x2x2 e 3x3x3). Globalmente a tecnologia DLP provou ser eficaz na produção destas estruturas cerâmicas altamente complexas, apresentando uma boa qualidade superficial. As estruturas de alumina sinterizada apresentaram uma densidade relativa de cerca de 76.3% e um comportamento pseudo-dúctil, de falha camada a camada, com a estrutura TPMS Schwarz D a exibir a maior resistência à compressão. Relativamente aos IPCs, a adição de alumínio alterou significativamente o comportamento à compressão das amostras, apresentando um comportamento de absorção de energia. A integração da fase de alumina na liga de alumínio levou a uma melhoria substancial da tensão de cedência, de 28.74% quando comparada com o valor teórico da liga de alumínio. Os IPCs Schwarz D e Gyroid demonstraram comportamentos mecânicos semelhantes, enquanto os IPCs Schwarz P apresentaram um desempenho mecânico inferior.2025-10-30T00:00:00Z2023-01-01T00:00:00Z2023info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10773/40007engSantos, Simão Cordeiroinfo:eu-repo/semantics/embargoedAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-02-22T12:18:26Zoai:ria.ua.pt:10773/40007Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:10:11.882310Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
