Investigation of Parameter Spaces for Topology Optimization With Three-Dimensional Orientation Fields for Multi-Axis Additive Manufacturing

Authors: Joseph Kubalak, Alfred Wicks, and Chris Williams J. Mech. Des. May 2021, 143(5): 051701 (15 pages)https://doi.org/10.1115/1.4048117 Multi-axis (MA) material extrusion (ME) additive manufacturing offers the opportunity to place each deposition path along load paths in 3D space. Such a capability has the potential to address anisotropy concerns presented by conventional (i.e., XY-planar) ME processes, […]
