Support structure constrained topology optimization for additive manufacturing
Background: With recent advances in additive manufacturing (AM) and topology optimization (TO), there is a significant interest in integrating the two fields [1]. Although TO and AM have flourished independent of each other, there is significant interest today in integrating them for two primary reasons: (1) Designs stemming from TO are geometrically complex, and therefore hard to manufacture u...
متن کاملTopology Optimization for Additive Manufacturing
This paper gives an overview of the issues and opportunities for the application of topology optimization methods for additive manufacturing (AM). The main analysis issues discussed are: how to achieve the maximum geometric resolution to allow the fine features easily manufacturable by AM to be represented in the optimization model; the manufacturing constraints to be considered, and the workfl...
متن کاملSupport slimming for single material based additive manufacturing
In layer-based additive manufacturing (AM), supporting structures need to be inserted to support the overhanging regions. The adding of supporting structures slows down the speed of fabrication and introduces artifacts onto the finished surface. We present an orientation-driven shape optimizer to slim down the supporting structures used in single material-based AM. The optimizer can be employed...
متن کاملAn Engineering Services Framework for Additive Manufacturing
Additive manufacturing is now mature and is becoming a mainstream production technique for various industries. It is important that engineering services organizations equip themselves to provide a new range of services in this sector. This paper presents an engineering process framework for evaluating and adopting additive manufacturing. It describes tools developed to improve engineering servi...
متن کاملSelf-supporting Topology Optimization for Additive Manufacturing
The paper presents a topology optimization approach that designs an optimal structure, called a self-supporting structure, which is ready to be fabricated via additive manufacturing without the usage of additional support structures. Such supports in general have to be created during the fabricating process so that the primary object can be manufactured layer by layer without collapse, which is...
