Design optimisation for high-value 3D printed components | University of Sheffield | TCT Show

Published on Nov 29, 2016

3D printing brings significant design freedoms, permitting truss, lattice and other complex forms to be incorporated in high value metallic components for aerospace and other applications. However, with this approach realising a viable component can be very time consuming. Research undertaken at the AdAM Centre at the University of Sheffield has led to the development of an alternative methodology in which individual truss elements are modelled directly from the outset in the optimisation process, boosting computational efficiency and providing designs which can often be manufactured with minimal user intervention. Matthew Gilbert, professor at the University of Sheffield presents these findings at the TCT Show 2016 Conference.
