多孔質充填構造のトポロジー最適化に関する研究

抄録

Infill structure - which consists of porous and solid phases over the structures, is getting a lot of attention due to its multi-functional performance, such as light weight, high-thermal convention and the potential redundancy. Nowadays, the manufacturing for this kind of geometrically complicated structure becomes possible by the recent development of Additive Manufacturing technology and furthermore topology optimization is often applied for the design to improve those structural performances. In infill topology optimization, too slender members often remain as a result of the severe density local constraints: this leads to undesirable local failure in the members even under small deformation. In this research, we propose a filtering method to avoid those thin members and local failure by introducing a variable length radius.
