A SIMP-phase field topology optimization framework to maximize quasi-brittle fracture resistance of 2D and 3D composites

Pengfei Li et al.

Summary: The study investigates the combination of SIMP topology optimization and phase field method for maximizing fracture resistance of structures composed of two materials, showing improved fracture resistance compared to guess designs with the same reinforcement volume fraction. The performance and convergence of the proposed algorithm are investigated, with the SIMP method demonstrating better convergence, especially with a homogeneous initial design. Applications to 2D and 3D composite structures demonstrate the potential and robustness of the approach.

Risk-averse approach for topology optimization of fail-safe structures using the level-set method

J. Martinez-Frutos et al.

Summary: This paper introduces a risk-averse approach in fail-safe topology optimization by minimizing two risk functions quantifying costs of collapses. The approach allows designers to explicitly incorporate probabilistic information of different structural failures, in contrast to the worst-case method.

A path-dependent level set topology optimization with fracture criterion

Chi Wu et al.

Summary: The paper incorporates a phase-field damage model into the topology optimization framework to account for crack initiation and propagation in a path-dependent manner. The proposed approach enhances fracture resistance of structures made of brittle materials and introduces a path-dependent shape derivative to drive the optimization effectively. Three 2D benchmark examples and one 3D biomedical example are studied to demonstrate the effectiveness of the method in improving fracture resistance with more efficient use of materials and reducing stress concentration and fracture risks.

An empirical study on stress-based fail-safe topology optimization and multiple load path design

Micah Kranz et al.

Summary: Explicitly considering fail-safety within design optimization is computationally expensive due to the need to consider every possible failure, requiring a separate finite element model per failure. In this paper, maximum stress is considered as the optimization objective, as it is more relevant to practical applications than compliance. The study suggests that the choice of failure shape has a greater impact on optimization than compliance-based approaches.

Bi-directional evolutionary stress-based topology optimization of material nonlinear structures

Bin Xu et al.

Summary: This paper extends current concepts of topology optimization to the design of structures made of nonlinear materials by proposing an extended BESO method. The method effectively avoids singularity problems in density-based methods and improves convergence through sensitivity and topological variable filters. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated through several 2D benchmark design problems.
