| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, taylor-made design and manufacturing of sandwich structures with topology-optimized core layers were successfully conducted by using the general-purpose finite element code, MSC Nastran, and FDM 3D printers. As case studies in this project, two different materials for the core layer of sandwich structures were chosen and topology-optimization designs were applied to three-point bending problem of sandwich beams. Stiffness maximization (compliance minimization) was selected as an object function under weight constrains. SIMP method was used for finding optimal shape for design regions in sandwich core layers and actual 3D printed objects were manufactured by FDM 3D printers. X-ray CT imaging and mechanical characterization tests were effectively employed to show the validity and usability of the present study.
