Thermomechanical properties optimization of L-PBF support structures via asymptotic homogenization and response surfaces

In the Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF) addive manufacuring process, support structures are essential to ensure mechanical anchoring and heat dissipation, preventing the part from warping due to accumulation of thermal residual stresses. Reliable simulation of these mesostructures requires extremely refined finite eleme...

Thermomechanical simulation and optimization of L-PBF support structures for mitigating distortion

The additive manufacturing of titanium alloys (Ti-6Al-4V) by L-PBF is characterized by severe thermal gradients that induce high residual stresses, which can be mitigated by using adequate support structures for preventing distortion. The main challenge lies in the difficulty of predicting how the spatial distribution,...

Optimisation of variable material orientations through design subregions for additive manufacturing of fibre composites

Additive manufacturing enables the production of structures conceived with optimal design freedom, realising the potential of conceptual gains. The design of composites with variable orientations, or variable stiffness design, holds unexplored potential for benefiting from optimisation techniques and additive manufactu...
