    Topology optimization subject to additive manufacturing constraints
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2019) Ebeling-Rump, Moritz; Hömberg, Dietmar; Lasarzik, Robert; Petzold, Thomas
    In Topology Optimization the goal is to find the ideal material distribution in a domain subject to external forces. The structure is optimal if it has the highest possible stiffness. A volume constraint ensures filigree structures, which are regulated via a Ginzburg-Landau term. During 3D Printing overhangs lead to instabilities, which have only been tackled unsatisfactorily. The novel idea is to incorporate an Additive Manufacturing Constraint into the phase field method. A rigorous analysis proves the existence of a solution and leads to first order necessary optimality conditions. With an Allen-Cahn interface propagation the optimization problem is solved iteratively. At a low computational cost the Additive Manufacturing Constraint brings about support structures, which can be fine tuned according to engineering demands. Stability during 3D Printing is assured, which solves a common Additive Manufacturing problem.

    Two-scale topology optimization with heterogeneous mesostructures based on a local volume constraint
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2021) Ebeling-Rump, Moritz; Hömberg, Dietmar; Lasarzik, Robert
    A new approach to produce optimal porous mesostructures and at the same time optimizing the macro structure subject to a compliance cost functional is presented. It is based on a phase-field formulation of topology optimization and uses a local volume constraint (LVC). The main novelty is that the radius of the LVC may depend both on space and a local stress measure. This allows for creating optimal topologies with heterogeneous mesostructures enforcing any desired spatial grading and accommodating stress concentrations by stress dependent pore size. The resulting optimal control problem is analysed mathematically, numerical results show its versatility in creating optimal macroscopic designs with tailored mesostructures.
