The last Grade2XL webinar will be on Friday 21 June at 13:00, this time the topic is “Engineering the Future: Harnessing Topology Optimization and Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing for Advanced Design Solutions”. In this Grade2XL webinar the two speakers, Constantinos Goulas (Assistant Professor at UTwente) and Franz Bormann (Research Engineer and Program Manager at M2i), will present everything you need to know about how Topology Optimization (TO) can transform traditional manufacturing paradigms by enabling the creation of complex, high-performance designs that surpass conventional intuition.
So, join us for an in-depth exploration of Topology Optimization and Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM), transformative technologies at the forefront of industrial design innovation. This webinar delves into how topology optimization not only maximizes material efficiency but also unleashes new possibilities in design flexibility and performance by identifying optimal material distribution and structural integrity for any given load condition.
Paired with the practical capabilities of WAAM, these methodologies foster the creation of lighter, stronger, and more sustainable structures. Learn from real-world applications and case studies that demonstrate their impact on reducing time-to-market and enhancing product performance in modern manufacturing. »
In this talk, we will explore how Topology Optimization (TO) can transform traditional manufacturing paradigms by enabling the creation of complex, high-performance designs that surpass conventional intuition. We will highlight the crucial integration of finite element method (FEM) analyses with TO, demonstrating how this synergy enhances the benefits of additive manufacturing (AM) through the creation of optimized, problem-tailored designs. Special attention will be given to the lessons learned from Grade2XL, where TO was employed to produce optimized designs tailored to two specific use-cases. These examples will illustrate the practical application of TO in real-world scenarios and emphasize the importance of collaboration among TO experts, AM specialists, and end-users.
Join this webinar and our two experts from the Grade2XL consortium to learn about this topic. More information and registration.
