Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of structural design topology optimization, and particularly discloses a multivariable cutting level set optimization method for porous structure topology optimization, which comprises the following steps: dividing a design reference domain into M units; describing a microstructure in each unit by using a plurality of basic level set functions and segmentation functions thereof, and performing cutting by using a cutting function to realize shape and topological change of the microstructure; obtaining post-cutting operation, a plurality of virtual microstructures in each unit; combining the components together through Boolean operation; generating actual microstructures; according to the method, a microstructure prototype is mapped from a square grid to aquadrilateral grid; meanwhile, a higher-order cutting function is adopted, the porous structure with a more complex geometric structure can be processed more flexibly, and the problems that in engineering practical application, the macroscopic shape of the porous structure is highly irregular, square grid division cannot be used, a bilinear interpolation function geometric model is not flexible enough, and the porous structure cannot be described well are solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of structure design topology optimization, and more specifically relates to a multivariable cutting level set optimization method for porous structure topology optimization. Background technique [0002] With the advent of additive manufacturing, porous structures have been increasingly recognized in practical engineering applications. In order to obtain excellent structural properties, topology optimization of microporous structures requires not only optimizing the macroscale of the structure, but also optimizing a large number of microstructures at different locations in the structure. This is an important topic in structural topology optimization. [0003] A lot of work has been done to optimize the topology of microstructures. The homogenization-based method subdivides the microstructure design domain specified by the designer (such as a solid square with rectangular holes), and searches for different optimal si...
