Description
Summary:The variable density method has become an effective method to solve the topology optimization problem of continuum structure due to its advantages such as few design variables and high efficiency. Aiming at the problem of the gray unit and sawtooth boundary in the optimization process of the variable density method, a post-processing method of variable density method for continuum topology optimization is proposed in this paper. The topology optimization model is binarized and the sawtooth shape boundary line is extracted, and the target discrete corner point set is obtained, used as the sample point for curve fitting to obtain the optimized structure with smooth boundary. Experimental results show that this method effectively avoids the zigzag boundary and intermediate density of the optimization result, and improves the manufacturability of the optimization result under the premise of ensuring that the structural performance is within the allowable range.
