Additive manufacturing techniques such as selective laser melting (SLM) allow for manufacturing periodic porous titanium structures having complex geometry. The mechanical properties of these structures with different elementary cell (ECs) designs have been already studied in literature. However, their fatigue behaviour is not yet well understood. This work aims at proposing a numerical approach to predict the periodic cellular structures fatigue behaviour under multiaxial loadings. The approach is based on an explicit description of the EC combined to an extreme statistical analysis making use of a fatigue indicator parameter to investigate (and compare) different EC configurations. On the other hand, the numerical model relies on the use of a general numerical homogenisation scheme to properly apply the multi-axial loading conditions to the EC at the mesoscopic scale. Results show that lattice fatigue strength is strongly affected by the relative density as well as by the geometrical features of the EC.
