- ItemTopology optimization subject to additive manufacturing constraints(Berlin ; Heidelberg : Springer, 2021) Ebeling-Rump, Moritz; Hömberg, Dietmar; Lasarzik, Robert; Petzold, ThomasIn 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. As a remedy an additive manufacturing constraint is added to the cost functional. First order optimality conditions are derived using a formal Lagrangian approach. 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 demands and increase stability during the printing process.
- ItemNumerical upscaling of parametric microstructures in a possibilistic uncertainty framework with tensor trains(Heidelberg : Springer, 2022) Eigel, Martin; Gruhlke, Robert; Moser, Dieter; Grasedyck, LarsA fuzzy arithmetic framework for the efficient possibilistic propagation of shape uncertainties based on a novel fuzzy edge detection method is introduced. The shape uncertainties stem from a blurred image that encodes the distribution of two phases in a composite material. The proposed framework employs computational homogenisation to upscale the shape uncertainty to a effective material with fuzzy material properties. For this, many samples of a linear elasticity problem have to be computed, which is significantly sped up by a highly accurate low-rank tensor surrogate. To ensure the continuity of the underlying mapping from shape parametrisation to the upscaled material behaviour, a diffeomorphism is constructed by generating an appropriate family of meshes via transformation of a reference mesh. The shape uncertainty is then propagated to measure the distance of the upscaled material to the isotropic and orthotropic material class. Finally, the fuzzy effective material is used to compute bounds for the average displacement of a non-homogenized material with uncertain star-shaped inclusion shapes.
