Physics-driven design tools such as topology optimization, while transformative at the conceptual level in engineering, have yet to significantly impact production components due to limited adoption in industry workflows. Through a series of case studies and technical analyses, this presentation examines the barriers to the integration of these tools into industry workflows, and in particular those preventing the mass production of topology optimized parts (such as cost and manufacturing constraints). We will demonstrate technical solutions which allow engineers to harness these tools across various sectors, enhancing value creation and efficiency for generalist engineers.
The CDFAM Computational Design Symposium Series brings together leading experts from design, engineering, architecture, academia and software development for a series of knowledge sharing and networking events focusing on computational design at all scales.
