Toward Automated Structural Design for Controlled Vibration Characteristics Using Topology Optimization and Computer Vision in Space Missions
Abstrak
This study explores the integration of computer vision with topology optimization for additive manufacturing, with a focus on maximizing eigenfrequency in a design domain. Utilizing custom-developed photogrammetry software, high-resolution images are processed to generate detailed 3D models, which are subsequently converted to STL files with precision. Adaptive meshing in COMSOL 5.3 Multiphysics, controlled through a MATLAB 2023 API, ensures optimal mesh resolution. Prioritizing resource conservation in extraterrestrial environments, the original volume is reduced by 50% while preserving structural integrity. The design domain undergoes rigorous topology optimization in MATLAB, supported by COMSOL’s advanced FEM simulation. The optimized design exhibits a 57% performance improvement and a 50% weight reduction, maintaining the desired vibration characteristics, validating the efficacy of the modifications. Moreover, the case with an eccentric mass shows a significant 64% increase in eigenfrequency.
