The main objective of this master thesis was the development of an optimized inner support structure for a hollow curved beam made by additive manufacturing technology with PA12 and Maraging steel materials. Have been followed two different approaches for the development of the inner support structure; the first one was the iterative-intuitive optimization, the second one was the mathematical design optimization. Have been done also a complete characterization of the PA12 material used.

Abstract

The main objective of this master thesis was the development of an optimized inner support structure for a hollow curved beam made by additive manufacturing technology with PA12 and Maraging steel materials. Have been followed two different approaches for the development of the inner support structure; the first one was the iterative-intuitive optimization, the second one was the mathematical design optimization. Have been done also a complete characterization of the PA12 material used.
