Design for Continuous Deposition with Fusion
Graduation project together with Autodesk Research (including work placement)
Project description
Topology optimization and additive manufacturing promise a streamlined design-to-make workflow, producing optimized designs with minimal human input. But topology optimization and print path generation are two isolated steps in the design-to-make process that do not communicate, meaning they currently fail to deliver their maximum potential. The goal is to create a software tool that analyses a solid model and generates a continuous toolpath that is fully traversable and adheres to structural performance requirements. The deliverable will be an add-in for Fusion 360, allowing for interface with Autodesk’s generative design tools, and extensibility to incorporate more of the freedoms and limitations of large-scale additive manufacturing.Credit: Jelle Verstege | Eindhoven University of Technology
You Will:
Learn
. Develop a strong understanding for developing add-ins in Python with the Fusion 360 API.Apply
. Author an add-in that can prepare a range of solid models for additive manufacture through continuous deposition.Extend
. Introduce structural engineering concepts in the succeed/fail analysis of the print paths. This could involve finding optimised methods of stacking layers of different layouts, incorporating considerations for buckling and slumping, or extend to include non-planar slicing.You Have
:- Intermediate knowledge of, or strong interest in, programming in Python.
- Strong knowledge of CAD, CAM, and/or 3D Concrete Printing concepts.
- Familiarity with Fusion 360 (or similar) for design and manufacturing workflows.
About the placement
:
You will receive a stipend of €1000 per month, for the duration of the 9-month project.
- 75% of your time will be project work, 25% will be regular studies.
- You will meet and learn from a global team of Autodesk researchers and engineers, with opportunities for wider collaboration.
