Topology Optimization for Multipatch Fused Deposition Modeling 3D Printing

This paper presents a hybrid topology optimization method for multipatch fused deposition modeling (FDM) 3D printing to address the process-induced material anisotropy. The ‘multipatch’ concept consists of each printing layer disintegrated into multiple patches with different zig...
