A triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) is a type of surface that is characterized by having minimal surface area while being periodic in three dimensions. This means that the surface can be repeated in space along three independent directions, creating a structure that is infinitely extending in all directions. Triply periodic minimal surfaces are defined mathematically as surfaces that locally minimize area, satisfying the condition of zero mean curvature at every point.
