MATERIAL DESIGN FOR ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING (MADAM)

Projektbeschreibung

Neue Lösungen für die Probleme des Materialdesigns

Für den Bereich der Metamaterialien eröffnen sich dank Fortschritten bei der additiven Fertigung und 3D-Druckverfahren neue Möglichkeiten. Trotz der beeindruckenden Eigenschaften, mit denen Metamaterialien aufwarten können (sie sind leicht, starr und robust), wurden viele dieser fortgeschrittenen Werkstoffe entwickelt, ohne auf die Einschränkungen der fertigenden Industrie Rücksicht zu nehmen. Zum Beispiel zeigen sie Anzeichen der Zerbrechlichkeit oder mangelnder Beständigkeit. Um diese Einschränkungen anzugehen, wird das EU-finanzierte Projekt MADAM Faktoren wie Fertigbarkeit und Widerstandsfähigkeit in den Prozess der Materialgestaltung aufnehmen. Konkret wird das Projekt numerische Algorithmen entwickeln, um die Designschwierigkeiten zu lösen, die aufkommen, wenn Beschränkungen der additiven Fertigung und der Belastbarkeit beachtet werden müssen.

Ziel

This projects aims to develop numerical algorithms for designing the new generation of advanced materials: Metamaterials. Their impressive properties (one of the lightest, stiffest and strongest materials available today) arise from their non intuitive topologies. Due to the additive manufacturing (AM) revolution or 3D-printing techniques, we are at the right moment where these complex topologies are now possible to be created.

However, additive manufacturing has its own manufacturability constraints. Although several advances have been developed in the last years, most of these new advanced materials, specially mechanical metamaterials, have been designed with considering no manufacturability constraints, i.e. are just theoretically design. Even more worrying, when manufacturability is possible, they show severe symptoms of fragility or limited resistance. MADAM project seeks to solve these limitations incorporating manufacturability and resistance properties in the process of material design (MAD).

The specific objectives are:
1) Develop numerical algorithms to solve the MAD problem when considering AM constraints.
2) Develop numerical algorithms to solve the MAD problem when considering stress constraints.
3) Develop second order optimization algorithms to efficiently solve the MAD problem.

The project is throughly designed for maximizing training and transfer of knowledge to the host. Risk and project management, IPR and Communication activities are also meticulously designed.
Additionally, MADAM will be connected with the enormous multi-partner AM Sofia consortium (Michelin, EADS) by disseminating and attending (confirmed) to monthly industrial meetings. My supervisor’s experience, the full assistance of his group, CMAP scientific knowledge and Ecole Polytechnique resources are the perfect instruments for developing the MADAM project.
