Topologie-Optimierung

What it is about

In this module you will learn the fundamentals and practical methods of topology optimization in 2D. After completion you will be able to apply numerical procedures, write your own MATLAB codes, interpret optimized structures and further develop them into manufacturable models.

What you will be able to do

• Understand the fundamentals and principles of topology optimization
• Apply numerical methods for topology optimization in 2D
• Write MATLAB codes to solve topology optimization problems
• Interpret and evaluate results of topology optimization
• Develop mechanical models and surrogate models for optimized structures
• Generate measures to improve stiffness and strength
• Recognize and develop practical applications of topology optimization

What the module consists of

• HochschulpraktikumCentral practical unit: application of the methods, independent programming and solving tasks
