High stiffness topology optimised lattice structures with increased toughness by porosity constraints
The stiffness and toughness of topology optimised structures containing lattices under three-point bending is studied. A porosity constraint is introduced to control the proportion of lattice generated while optimising the beams for minimum compliance. A novel tetrahedron element-based lattice with...
