Abstract The capability to analyze structures under static and dynamic loads is an essential skill for structural engineers. Structural analysis therefore a key component in civil architectural engineering education, where analytical methods are traditionally complemented by the use of (commercial) software packages. latter often closed source, which may obscure links underlying matrix or finite element formulation. To stimulate active, cooperative, solution‐oriented learning, we developed...
This paper aims to optimize additive manufacturing parts containing lattice structures by means of topology optimization. The proposed method relies on numerical homogenization model the behavior mesoscale lattices inside macroscale component with an equivalent material model. While unit cell is fixed a priori, constitutive considered be function multiple size parameters struts and orientation cell. Both are as design fields in domain optimization order distribution orthotropic while...
Each sub-model has to be specified by a set of parameters, which are imperfectly known; it may also influenced unpredictable exogenous input. These uncertain inputs collectively represented the upward arrows in diagram. The uncertainty about these is often modelled considering them as random variables. effects propagate through chain, some accumulation will occur. Uncertainty analysis provides methods study consequences effects. goal such analyses evaluate if joint effect on final output y...
