Description

纤维取向与结构并行优化的连续纤维3D打印路径规划方法Continuous Fiber 3D Printing Path Planning Method Based on Parallel Optimization of Fiber Orientation and Structure 技术领域technical field
本发明属于结构优化、复合材料和增材制造交叉技术领域,具体涉及一种纤维取向与结构并行优化的连续纤维3D打印路径规划方法。The invention belongs to the technical fields of structural optimization, composite materials and additive manufacturing, and specifically relates to a continuous fiber 3D printing path planning method for parallel optimization of fiber orientation and structure.
技术背景technical background
连续纤维增强复合材料作为一种各向异性材料,是用于先进结构制造的重要材料。连续纤维增强复合材料3D打印工艺打破了传统模压、铺放技术在纤维角度方向上的约束,以路径规划信息打印模型,可以实现纤维取向的精细化控制和自由设计。采用熔融沉积成形(FDM)技术类似的原理,将纤维干丝与热塑性丝材在线浸渍并通过打印喷头进行打印,其力学性能根据纤维路径的打印角度产生相应变化。由于连续纤维增强复合材料沿纤维方向的力学性能远优于垂直纤维方向的力学性能,因此3D打印工艺中纤维路径打印方向对构件的整体性能有很大影响。Continuous fiber reinforced composites, as an anisotropic material, are important materials for the manufacture of advanced structures. The 3D printing process of continuous fiber-reinforced composites breaks the constraints of traditional molding and laying technology on the fiber angle direction, and prints the model with path planning information, which can realize fine control and free design of fiber orientation. Using the similar principle of fused deposition modeling (FDM) technology, the fiber dry filament and thermoplastic filament are impregnated online and printed through the printing nozzle, and its mechanical properties change according to the printing angle of the fiber path. Since the mechanical properties of continuous fiber reinforced composites along the fiber direction are much better than those perpendicular to the fiber direction, the printing direction of the fiber path in the 3D printing process has a great influence on the overall performance of the component.
连续纤维增强复合材料3D打印工艺使材料、结构并行优化和一体化成形成为可能。虽然国内外对基于复合材料各向异性的优化设计有一定的理论研究,但是并未和3D打印工艺技术紧密结合,优化设计中包含的微观纤维分布、宏观拓扑结构信息与制造技术的融合仍面临巨大挑战,无法发挥出先进成形工艺与纤维增强性能的巨大潜力,缺乏相应的路径规划方法。The 3D printing process of continuous fiber reinforced composite materials makes it possible to optimize materials and structures in parallel and integrate them into one. Although there are certain theoretical studies on the optimization design based on the anisotropy of composite materials at home and abroad, they are not closely integrated with 3D printing technology, and the integration of microscopic fiber distribution, macroscopic topological structure information and manufacturing technology contained in the optimal design is still facing challenges. Huge challenges, unable to realize the huge potential of advanced forming technology and fiber reinforced performance, lack of corresponding path planning methods.
目前针对连续纤维增强复合材料3D打印工艺技术尚不完善,其路径规划方法多采用栅格轮廓填充、轮廓偏置路径填充、混合路径填充等传统FDM工艺手段,未能充分考虑连续纤维增强复合材料的各向异性力学性能。对于纤维取向与复合材料结构的并行优化设计,其模型中包含了有限元离散网格下各单元材 料密度和纤维角度,充分考虑了纤维方向对结构性能的影响。然而,这种结构优化方法支持任意形状输出作为优化结果,其结果并非直接可行,通过传统的3D打印路径规划方法不能同时实现优化结构的宏观拓扑几何特征和微观纤维取向,还会出现打印过程中转角过小、路径跳转、路径重叠等问题,从而严重影响优化结构的力学性能,限制了连续纤维增强复合材料3D打印工艺的发展。At present, the 3D printing technology for continuous fiber reinforced composite materials is not perfect, and its path planning methods mostly use traditional FDM techniques such as grid contour filling, contour offset path filling, and mixed path filling, which fail to fully consider continuous fiber reinforced composite materials. anisotropic mechanical properties. For the parallel optimization design of fiber orientation and composite material structure, the model includes the material density and fiber angle of each unit under the finite element discrete grid, fully considering the influence of fiber orientation on structural performance. However, this structure optimization method supports arbitrary shape output as the optimization result, and the result is not directly feasible. The traditional 3D printing path planning method cannot simultaneously realize the macroscopic topological geometric characteristics and microscopic fiber orientation of the optimized structure, and there will be problems in the printing process. Problems such as too small corners, path jumps, and path overlaps seriously affect the mechanical properties of the optimized structure and limit the development of continuous fiber reinforced composite 3D printing processes.

3)将步骤2)得到的优化结构根据其宏观几何特征划分子区域,由此将复杂的优化结构离散成有限个具有简单几何形状特征的结构;采用拓扑学思想将每个子区域抽象成点,并根据子区域所属优化结构的位置关系将点与点之间相连接,相互连接的点图组成了含有优化结构特征信息的连通图,对优化结构的路径规划问题归为图论中寻找连通图中的哈密顿路径问题,即在连通图中寻找不重复遍历所有点的路径;3) Divide the optimized structure obtained in step 2) into sub-regions according to its macroscopic geometric characteristics, thereby discretizing the complex optimized structure into a finite number of structures with simple geometric characteristics; using topology to abstract each sub-region into points, And according to the position relationship of the optimal structure of the sub-area, the points are connected with each other.

式中,θ j表示相邻区间的轨迹方向,ε表示区间之间的角度偏差,根据子区域的几何特征ε值相应变化;当步骤2)中纤维角度θ e取值范围的不同时,得到的区间纤维轨迹角度θ i也会有所不同,应以取值范围边界和区间内θ e值相隔较 远原则选择特定取值范围,使计算得到的纤维轨迹角度θ i值尽可能与所在区间内并行优化计算结果θ e相匹配;另外,在子区域的局部网格内可能出现并行优化计算得到的纤维角度和子区域的几何特征不符,此时计算的区间纤维轨迹角度应不包含这些局部单元网格,得到优化结构每个子区域内的纤维轨迹方向; In the formula, θ j represents the trajectory direction of adjacent intervals, ε represents the angle deviation between intervals, and the value of ε changes correspondingly according to the geometric characteristics of the sub-region; when the value range of the fiber angle θ e in step 2) is different, we get The interval fiber trajectory angle θ i will also be different, and a specific value range should be selected based on the principle that the value range boundary and the value of θ e in the interval are far apart, so that the calculated fiber trajectory angle θ i value is as close as possible to the interval In addition, in the local grid of the sub-area, the fiber angle calculated by parallel optimization may not match the geometric characteristics of the sub-area, and the calculated interval fiber trajectory angle at this time should not include these local units Grid, to obtain the fiber trajectory direction in each sub-region of the optimized structure;
5)根据步骤4)得到的子区域纤维轨迹方向对子区域内材料进行铺放,其铺放间距即为该子区域的不同区间内3D打印扫描间距h i,i=1,2,…,n;根据连续纤维增强复合材料3D打印工艺,扫描间距h和纤维体积分数v f存在比例关系,而纤维体积分数v f作为并行优化的参数在步骤1)中已经确定,因此将3D打印工艺最大纤维含量下扫描间距h(v fmax)和并行优化中设置的纤维含量下扫描间距h(v f)作为3D打印工艺的制造约束,即h(v fmax)≤h i≤h(v f),以满足连续纤维增强复合材料结构满足目标性能需求和3D打印工艺要求,而区间内扫描间距h i应尽可能接近并行优化中设置纤维含量下扫描间距h(v f); 5) Lay the materials in the sub-area according to the fiber trajectory direction of the sub-area obtained in step 4), and the laying distance is the 3D printing scanning distance h i in different intervals of the sub-area, i=1,2,..., n; According to the 3D printing process of continuous fiber reinforced composite materials, there is a proportional relationship between the scanning distance h and the fiber volume fraction v f , and the fiber volume fraction v f has been determined in step 1) as a parallel optimization parameter, so the 3D printing process is maximized The scanning distance h(v fmax ) under the fiber content and the scanning distance h(v f ) under the fiber content set in the parallel optimization are used as the manufacturing constraints of the 3D printing process, that is, h(v fmax )≤h i ≤h(v f ), To satisfy the continuous fiber-reinforced composite structure and meet the target performance requirements and 3D printing process requirements, the scanning interval h i in the interval should be as close as possible to the scanning interval h(v f ) under the fiber content set in parallel optimization;

7)将步骤6)得到的子区域打印路径根据步骤3)得到的哈密顿路径顺序连接,连接时根据具体材料和设备特性确定允许最小转角半径r min作为另一制造约束,使子区域连接时的打印半径r print≥r min7) Connect the sub-region printing paths obtained in step 6) sequentially according to the Hamiltonian path obtained in step 3), and determine the allowable minimum corner radius r min as another manufacturing constraint according to the specific material and device characteristics during connection, so that when the sub-regions are connected The print radius r print ≥ r min ;
8)经过以上的路径规划后,根据基体材料进给量和打印距离的比例将路径输出,生成打印G-code代码用于3D打印机进行打印。8) After the above path planning, the path is output according to the ratio of the feed amount of the base material and the printing distance, and the printed G-code code is generated for printing by the 3D printer.
所述的步骤3)中如果含有优化结构特征信息的连通图中不存在哈密顿路径,或所含有的哈密顿路径无法规划打印路径,则将连通图中已有的部分点即子区 域分割为多个点,即多个子区域;或在连通图中增添点,即增加新的子区域,具体指在优化结构内增加新的结构,直至含有优化结构特征信息的连通图中至少存在一种哈密度路径作为连续纤维3D打印路径的规划依据。In the step 3), if there is no Hamiltonian path in the connected graph containing the optimized structural feature information, or the contained Hamiltonian path cannot plan the printing path, then the existing part of the connected graph, that is, the sub-region, is divided into Multiple points, that is, multiple sub-regions; or adding points in the connected graph, that is, adding a new sub-region, specifically refers to adding a new structure in the optimized structure until there is at least one hash in the connected graph containing the characteristic information of the optimized structure The density path is used as the planning basis for the continuous fiber 3D printing path.
所述的步骤5)中根据每个区间纤维轨迹方向θ i和扫描间距h i初步得到的子区域的打印路径,采用不同的子区域分割区间范围,得到的打印路径也会有所不同;如果打印路径不能展现子区域的形状特征,则回到步骤4)的调整分割区间范围,直至每个子区域内都至少存在一种打印路径可以实现优化结构的宏观几何特征和3D工艺打印要求。 In the step 5), according to the printing path of the sub-region initially obtained according to the fiber trajectory direction θ i and the scanning distance h i of each interval, different sub-regions are used to divide the interval range, and the printing path obtained will also be different; if If the printing path cannot show the shape characteristics of the sub-region, go back to step 4) to adjust the division range until there is at least one printing path in each sub-region that can realize the macroscopic geometric characteristics of the optimized structure and the 3D process printing requirements.

3)将步骤2)得到的优化结构根据其宏观几何特征划分子区域,由此将复杂的优化结构离散成有限个具有简单几何形状特征的结构;采用拓扑学思想将每个子区域抽象成点,并根据子区域所属优化结构的位置关系将点与点之间相连接,相互连接的点图组成了含有优化结构特征信息的连通图,对优化结构的路径规划问题归为图论中寻找连通图中的哈密顿路径问题,即在连通图中寻找不重复遍历所有点的路径;3) Divide the optimized structure obtained in step 2) into sub-regions according to its macroscopic geometric characteristics, thereby discretizing the complex optimized structure into a finite number of structures with simple geometric characteristics; using topology to abstract each sub-region into points, And according to the position relationship of the optimal structure of the sub-area, the points are connected with each other.

The path planning problem of the optimized structure is classified as finding a connected graph in graph theory. The Hamiltonian path problem in , that is, to find a path that does not traverse all points repeatedly in a connected graph;
考虑优化结构的复杂性,如果含有优化结构特征信息的连通图中不存在哈密顿路径,或所含有的哈密顿路径无法规划打印路径,则将连通图中已有的部分点即子区域分割为多个点,即多个子区域;或在连通图中增添点,即增加新的子区域,具体指在优化结构模型内增加新的结构,直至含有优化结构特征信息的连通图中至少存在一种哈密度路径作为连续纤维3D打印路径的规划依据;Considering the complexity of the optimized structure, if there is no Hamiltonian path in the connected graph containing the characteristic information of the optimized structure, or the contained Hamiltonian path cannot plan the printing path, then the existing points in the connected graph, that is, sub-regions, are divided into Multiple points, that is, multiple sub-regions; or adding points in the connected graph, that is, adding a new sub-region, specifically refers to adding a new structure in the optimized structure model until there is at least one The Ha density path is used as the planning basis for the continuous fiber 3D printing path;
本实施例根据优化结构的几何形状特征划分子区域,如图3所示,对优化结构的几何形状进行判断和解析,根据形状特征选取图2中的细杆结构作为区域划分的基础,由此将复杂的优化结构拆解为16个简单的杆状结构,如图3中框选出的16个子区域;In this embodiment, subregions are divided according to the geometric shape characteristics of the optimized structure. As shown in FIG. 3, the geometric shape of the optimized structure is judged and analyzed, and the thin rod structure in FIG. Disassemble the complex optimization structure into 16 simple rod-shaped structures, such as the 16 sub-regions selected in the box in Figure 3;
本实施例采用拓扑学思想将每个子区域等价成点,点与点的连接关系代表优化结构的交点信息,由此将复杂的拓扑几何结构转化为连通图,如图4所示,连通图内的每个节点都代表其数字相对应的子区域,由此将路径规划问题转化为建立连通图中的哈密顿路径问题,哈密顿路径为不重复遍历所有点的路径,这里指通过所有子区域的打印路径,如图4所示,构建新的子区域(*1、*2、*3)作为哈密顿路径中新的连接点,子区域*1为子区域3的衍生区域,子区域*2为子区域2的衍生区域,子区域*3为子区域16的衍生区域;以连通图中的节点3作为起始点,依次连接子区域节点3,16,1,2,*1,11,14,15,*3,13,12,7,6,*2,4,5,8,9,10,得到含有优化结构特征信息的哈密顿路径,定义该哈密顿路径为优化结构的路径规划依据;In this embodiment, the idea of topology is used to convert each sub-region into a point, and the connection relationship between points represents the intersection information of the optimized structure, thereby converting the complex topological geometric structure into a connected graph, as shown in Figure 4, the connected graph Each node in represents the sub-area corresponding to its number, thus transforming the path planning problem into the problem of establishing a Hamiltonian path in the connected graph. The Hamiltonian path is a path that does not traverse all points repeatedly. The printing path of the area, as shown in Figure 4, constructs a new sub-area (*1, *2, *3) as a new connection point in the Hamiltonian path, the sub-area *1 is the derived area of the sub-area 3, and the sub-area *2 is the derived area of sub-area 2, and sub-area *3 is the derived area of sub-area 16; with node 3 in the connectivity graph as the starting point, connect sub-area nodes 3, 16, 1, 2, *1, 11 in sequence . planning basis;
4)由于纤维角度θ e在并行优化的计算结果中为离散值,因此不能直接得到打印路径上的纤维轨迹方向,对步骤3)划分的子区域内纤维轨迹方向进行计算,根据子区域的几何特征将其分割成n个区间,每个区间内包含n e个单元网格;然后将步骤2)处理后的并行优化结果代入,区间内单元网格的材料密度x e值作为其纤维角度θ e的权重因子,由此得到每个区间的纤维轨迹方向θ i,如式(3)所示; 4) Since the fiber angle θ e is a discrete value in the calculation results of parallel optimization, the direction of the fiber trajectory on the printing path cannot be directly obtained. The direction of the fiber trajectory in the sub-area divided in step 3) is calculated. According to the geometry of the sub-area Divide it into n intervals, and each interval contains n e unit grids; then substitute the parallel optimization results processed in step 2), and the material density x e value of the unit grid in the interval is taken as its fiber angle θ The weight factor of e , thus obtaining the fiber trajectory direction θ i of each interval, as shown in formula (3);

式中,θ j表示相邻区间的轨迹方向,ε表示区间之间的角度偏差,根据子区 域的几何特征ε值相应变化;当步骤2)中纤维角度θ e取值范围的不同时,得到的区间纤维轨迹角度θ i也会有所不同,应以取值范围边界和区间内θ e值相隔较远原则选择特定取值范围,使计算得到的纤维轨迹角度θ i值尽可能与所在区间内并行优化计算结果θ e相匹配,以最大程度上发挥连续纤维增强复合材料的各向异性性能优势;另外,在子区域的局部网格内可能出现并行优化计算得到的纤维角度和子区域的几何特征不符,此时计算的区间纤维轨迹角度应不包含这些局部单元网格,以提高优化结构的可制造性;得到优化结构每个子区域内的纤维轨迹方向,为子区域内连续纤维路径的规划提供依据; In the formula, θ j represents the trajectory direction of adjacent intervals, ε represents the angle deviation between intervals, and the value of ε changes correspondingly according to the geometric characteristics of the sub-region; when the value range of the fiber angle θ e in step 2) is different, we get The interval fiber trajectory angle θ i will also be different, and a specific value range should be selected based on the principle that the value range boundary and the value of θ e in the interval are far apart, so that the calculated fiber trajectory angle θ i value is as close as possible to the interval In order to maximize the anisotropic performance advantages of continuous fiber reinforced composites, the parallel optimization calculation results θ e in the sub-area may appear in the local mesh of the sub-area. If the characteristics do not match, the calculated interval fiber trajectory angle should not include these local unit grids to improve the manufacturability of the optimized structure; the fiber trajectory direction in each sub-region of the optimized structure is obtained, which is the planning of the continuous fiber path in the sub-region Provide evidence;
本实施例对步骤3)划分得到的子区域进行几何形状判断和解析,根据形状特征将子区域分割为有限个区间,如图5所示1/2MBB梁子区域材料铺放,对每个区间所包含的单元纤维优化角度θ e进行修正,以材料密度x e值作为其纤维角度θ e的权重因子代入计算得到每个区间的纤维轨迹方向θ i;如图5所示,部分子区域3和子区域12根据其形状特征以不同区间形式分割,以此保证铺放材料的整体方向和子区域的结构几何特征相匹配,不同区间内纤维铺放方向根据计算θ i值相应变化; In this embodiment, the geometric shape judgment and analysis of the sub-regions obtained in step 3) are performed, and the sub-regions are divided into a limited number of intervals according to the shape characteristics. The included unit fiber optimization angle θ e is corrected, and the material density x e value is used as the weight factor of the fiber angle θ e to calculate the fiber trajectory direction θ i of each interval; as shown in Figure 5, some sub-regions 3 and The area 12 is divided into different intervals according to its shape characteristics, so as to ensure that the overall direction of the laid material matches the structural geometric characteristics of the sub-area, and the fiber laying direction in different intervals changes correspondingly according to the calculated θ i value;
5)根据步骤4)得到的子区域纤维轨迹方向对子区域内材料进行铺放,其铺放间距即为该子区域的不同区间内3D打印扫描间距h i,i=1,2,…,n;根据连续纤维增强复合材料3D打印工艺,扫描间距h和纤维体积分数v f存在比例关系,而纤维体积分数v f作为并行优化的参数在步骤1)中已经确定,因此将3D打印工艺最大纤维含量下扫描间距h(v fmax)和并行优化中设置的纤维含量下扫描间距h(v f)作为3D打印工艺的制造约束,即h(v fmax)≤h i≤h(v f),以满足连续纤维增强复合材料结构满足目标性能需求和3D打印工艺要求,其中,h i小于h(v fmax)保证了打印路径在子区域内不会出现路径叠加,提高制造结构的力学性能,而区间 内扫描间距h i应尽可能接近并行优化中设置纤维含量下扫描间距h(v f),以减少材料损耗; 5) Lay the materials in the sub-area according to the fiber trajectory direction of the sub-area obtained in step 4), and the laying distance is the 3D printing scanning distance h i in different intervals of the sub-area, i=1,2,..., n; According to the 3D printing process of continuous fiber reinforced composite materials, there is a proportional relationship between the scanning distance h and the fiber volume fraction v f , and the fiber volume fraction v f has been determined in step 1) as a parallel optimization parameter, so the 3D printing process is maximized The scanning distance h(v fmax ) under the fiber content and the scanning distance h(v f ) under the fiber content set in the parallel optimization are used as the manufacturing constraints of the 3D printing process, that is, h(v fmax )≤h i ≤h(v f ), To meet the target performance requirements and 3D printing process requirements for the continuous fiber reinforced composite structure, among them, h i is less than h(v fmax ) to ensure that the printing path will not overlap in the sub-area and improve the mechanical properties of the manufactured structure, while The scanning interval h i in the interval should be as close as possible to the scanning interval h(v f ) under the fiber content set in parallel optimization to reduce material loss;
根据每个区间纤维轨迹方向θ i和扫描间距h i初步得到的子区域的打印路径,采用不同的子区域分割区间范围,得到的打印路径也会有所不同;如果打印路径不能展现子区域的形状特征,则回到步骤4)的调整分割区间范围,直至每个子区域内都至少存在一种打印路径可以实现优化结构的宏观几何特征和3D工艺打印要求; According to the printing path of the sub-area preliminarily obtained according to the fiber trajectory direction θ i and the scanning distance h i of each interval, if different sub-areas are used to divide the interval range, the printing path obtained will be different; if the printing path cannot show the sub-area Shape features, then go back to step 4) to adjust the range of the segmentation interval until there is at least one printing path in each sub-region that can realize the macroscopic geometric characteristics of the optimized structure and the requirements of 3D process printing;
本实施例对于3D打印连续纤维增强复合材料,纤维体积分数通过3D打印工艺参数的材料系数、打印间距和层厚相对应,打印间距与纤维体积分数呈负相关关系,和如图5所示的局部结构放大图,轨迹之间的距离为打印间距,打印间距h i需要小于并尽可能接近步骤1)中代入计算的纤维体积分数所对应的打印间距值h(v f),以满足路径规划的优化结构的力学性能;且需要小于3D打印工艺最大体积分数所对应的打印间距值h(v fmax),以满足3D打印工艺的制造要求; In this embodiment, for 3D printing continuous fiber reinforced composite materials, the fiber volume fraction corresponds to the material coefficient of the 3D printing process parameters, the printing spacing and the layer thickness, and the printing spacing is negatively correlated with the fiber volume fraction, and the local Structural enlarged view, the distance between tracks is the printing distance, the printing distance h i needs to be smaller than and as close as possible to the printing distance value h(v f ) corresponding to the fiber volume fraction calculated in step 1), so as to meet the path planning Optimize the mechanical properties of the structure; and need to be smaller than the printing spacing value h(v fmax ) corresponding to the maximum volume fraction of the 3D printing process to meet the manufacturing requirements of the 3D printing process;
