BoneSlicer

BoneSlicer is an experimental G-Code-Generator written in Java that allows creating load-adapted infill for 3D printed (FFF) parts, inspired by the adaptive structures of trabecular bone tissue. It uses a simple structural Finite Element Analysis to determine the distribution of mechanical stress within the part and offers tools to generate an infill structure consisting of multiple subareas of varying infill density. Subdivision of the infill area can be based on a broad spectrum of FEA result parameters. BoneSlicer relies on the Open Source software GMesh and Calculix for meshing and FEA analysis. So far only 2D FEA and only cross hatch infill is supported.
