A “gyroid triply periodic minimal surface” refers to a type of TPMS surface. A gyroid is a type of infinitely connected surface that Alan Schoen discovered in 1970. A gyroid surface is a type of triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) that can be generated using a mesh generating software tool or feature of a CAD/CAM/CAE tool. Advantageously, a gyroid surface has a high surface area. A gyroid triply periodic minimal surface may originate from a triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) field.
