Abstract

Summary In this paper, a methodology that solves multimaterial topology optimization problems while also optimizing the quantity and type of joints between dissimilar materials is proposed. Multimaterial topology optimization has become a popular design optimization technique since the enhanced design freedom typically leads to superior solutions; however, the conventional assumption that all elements are perfectly fused together as a single piece limits the usefulness of the approach since the mutual dependency between optimal multimaterial geometry and optimal joint design is not properly accounted for. The proposed methodology uses an effective decomposition approach to both determine the optimal topology of a structure using multiple materials and the optimal joint design using multiple joint types. By decomposing the problem into two smaller subproblems, gradient‐based optimization techniques can be used and large models that cannot be solved with nongradient approaches can be solved. Moreover, since the joining interfaces are interpreted directly from multimaterial topology optimization results, the shape of the joining interfaces and the quantity of joints connecting dissimilar materials do not need to be defined a priori. Three numerical examples, which demonstrate how the methodology optimizes the geometry of a multimaterial structure for both compliance and cost of joining, are presented.
