Running Shoe Midsole: Tetrahedra Lattice


Midsole Concept: Voronoi Tetrahedra
 _______
This model uses randomly spaced points to generate a lattice structure formed of tetrahedra cells. 
These random points could be replaced with actual data points gathered from force plates 
to adjust the structure in accord with regions of higher demand during running. 

All parts were modeled using Rhino
lattice integration was performed through nTopology
and all additional designs were created in Procreate. ​​​​​​​
Integrated Lattice Midsole
Sectioned lattice integration to regions of 
highest pressure during running, 
optimizing cost and production time​​​​​​​.
Indented border along each piece to 
enable greater cushioned compression.
