Abstract
The mathematical model of thermomechanical coupling multi-objective topology optimization for anisotropic structures was established using the element-free Galerkin (EFG) method, and the weighted function of compliance and heat dissipation was defined as the objective function. The proposed model and procedure were verified by the topological results based on the finite element method. The multi-objective EFG optimal topological structures have clearer boundary profiles even without using the sensitivity filtering technique. The effects of the weight coefficient, thermal conductivity factor, Poisson's ratio factor, off-angle and volume fraction on the multi-objective EFG optimal topological structure and multi-objective function were evaluated in detail, and reasonable ranges of the above parameters were recommended to improve the heat dissipation and mechanical performance. The multi-objective optimal results of the anisotropic structure were 3D printed and compared with the isotropic material, and their temperature, displacement and stress were improved, which reflects the advantages of orthotropic structures.
