General note Additive manufacturing (AM) enables the production of complex geometries that are challenging<br/>to achieve with traditional manufacturing methods. Wave springs, developed using AM, offer<br/>superior load-bearing capacity, lightweight structure, high energy absorption efficiency, and<br/>enhanced stiffness compared to conventional helical springs, making them ideal for advanced<br/>engineering applications. This research examines the dynamic behavior of AM-fabricated wave<br/>springs, with a focus on their potential for vibration isolation and energy absorption. Employing a<br/>combination of finite element analysis (FEA) and experimental testing, the study evaluates the<br/>effects of geometric variations on the damping characteristics and natural frequencies of the wave<br/>springs. The findings reveal how AM enables the creation of wave springs with customized<br/>dynamic properties, offering advantages in optimizing performance for specific applications and<br/>functional requirements. The results indicate that the rectangular wave spring design exhibited a<br/>damping ratio approximately 38% higher than the round design and 12% greater than the variable<br/>thickness design. Additionally, the study examines the fatigue resistance of AM-fabricated wave<br/>springs for all designs, assessing their durability under repeated loading conditions. It further<br/>revealed a trade-off between resonance frequency and durability, with the rectangular design<br/>achieving the highest fatigue life. By demonstrating the potential of AM to produce wave springs<br/>with tailored dynamic properties, this research contributes to sustainable industrial innovation.
