Design and Optimization of Gears Using Lattice Structure for Additive Manufacturing
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Khodaygan, Saeed (Supervisor)
Abstract
Gears are a major component of many transmission systems. nowadays, improving the operating conditions and reducing the weight of the gears is one of the most needed issues in the industry. This dissertation aims to find the optimal structure of gear under different load cases and reduce its weight optimally. In this regard, topology optimization is used to develop the gear structure.In this research, two areas of bio-inspired design and additive manufacturing are used to achieve goals. These two areas can make good use of each other's potentials and achieve results that were not previously possible with traditional methods of design and manufacturing. First, an introduction and history of...
