EVENTO
TOPOLOGICAL DERIVATIVE-BASED TOPOLOGY OPTIMIZATION OF STRUCTURES INTO THREE SPATIAL DIMENSIONS
Tipo de evento: Seminário de Avaliação - Série A
The topological derivative method has been widely and successfully applied in many different fields over the last years and has proved to be of great relevance, especially in engineering problems. In this work, the topological der ivative is applied for the topology optimization of structures into three spatial dimensions in the context of linear elasticity. More precisely, we deal with the topology optimization of structures subject to external loads and self-weight loading, as well as the design of microstructures. The proposed topology optimization problem is solved with the help of a topology optimization algorithm based on the topological derivative concept together with a level-set domain representation method. The algorithm is implemented in the open-source program FreeFEM, originallydesigned for solving partial differential equations by the finite element method. FreeFEM allows us for dealing with problems into three spatial dimensions with almost the same simplicity of two-dimensional applications in terms of computational implementation, a remarkable and crucial feature for this work. In addition, the parallel version of FreeFEM based on the domain decomposition method and PETSc for the linear algebra backend is also widely explored. In this sense, a comprehensive discussion of the compliance minimization problem into three spatial dimensions is provided together with the complete parallel FreeFEM implementation of the proposed algorithm.From this starting point, a non-trivial extension of the compliance minimization problem of structures subject only to external loads to structures under self-weight loading is performed. Moreover, the proposed parallel FreeFEM implementation is also adapted to the context of multi-scale material design of microstructures. Finally, in order to show the effectiveness of the proposed approach, several numerical experiments are performed. Evento Presencial:Local: Auditório B
