Additive manufacturing is a valid solution to build complex geometries, including lightweight structures. Among these, gyroids offer a viable concept for bone tissue application, although many preliminary trials would be required to validate the design before actual implantation. In this frame, this study is aimed at presenting the background and the steps to build a numerical simulation to extract the mechanical behaviour of the structure, thus reducing the experimental effort. The results of the simulation are compared to the actual outcome resulting from quasi-static compressive tests and the effectiveness of the model is measured with reference to similar studies presented in the literature about other lightweight structures.
增材制造是构建复杂几何形状（包括轻量化结构）的有效解决方案。其中，螺旋面为骨组织应用提供了一个可行的概念，不过在实际植入前还需要进行许多初步试验来验证设计。在此框架下，本研究旨在介绍构建数值模拟以提取结构力学行为的背景和步骤，从而减少实验工作量。将模拟结果与准静态压缩试验的实际结果进行比较，并参照文献中关于其他轻量化结构的类似研究来衡量该模型的有效性。
