Auxetic structure design using compliant mechanisms: A topology optimization approach with polygonal finite elements. |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
•Topology optimization of compliant mechanism has been applied to design structures that simulate the behavior of auxetic materials.•Polygonal finite elements are employed to avoid the formation of the so-called one-node connections (‘hinges’) in the compliant mechanism design.•An integrated approach that combines projection technique with a mapping technique is adopted to include an additive manufacturing constraint (minimum wall thickness).•A pattern repetition constraint is also applied to generate macrostructures that presents negative Poisson's ration.•Connection of the topology optimization approach with additive manufacturing is demonstrated by using 3D printers. |
