Cryogenic treatment has high potential for improving the deformation behavior through the recrystallization at a low temperature. In this work, true stress-strain curves were obtained via compression tests to understand the deformation behavior of an AA7075 under cryogenic conditions. Results showed a significant improvement in the flow stress of AA7075, increasing from 260 to 560 MPa at the yield point.

Samples were made additively from laser powder bed fusion process with a relative density of 0.3 and pore sizes ranging from 300 to 1300 μm.

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is often used to reveal the interaction between structural architectures and flow fields. Nevertheless, a comprehensive study on the effect of manufacturing defects and non-Newtonian behavior on the fluid responses in TPMS scaffolds is still lacking.
