Topology optimisation and simulated state reconstruction for self-sensing piezoresistive grippers
Connor N Mallon, Zachary J Wegert, Anthony P Roberts +3
We consider the computational design of a self-sensing robotic gripper that has the potential to reduce reliance on traditional external sensors. We computationally investigate the…
Topology optimisation of adsorption beds for cost-effective direct air capture
Connor Mallon, Aaron Thornton, Matthew Hill +2
The performance of adsorption systems is sensitive to the geometry of the adsorbent. To achieve feasibility for large-scale implementation of CO2 direct air capture systems in line…
Level-set topology optimisation with unfitted finite elements and automatic shape differentiation
Zachary J. Wegert, Jordi Manyer, Connor Mallon +2
In this paper we develop automatic shape differentiation techniques for unfitted discretisations and link these to recent advances in shape calculus for unfitted methods. We extend…
GridapTopOpt.jl: A scalable Julia toolbox for level set-based topology optimisation
Zachary J. Wegert, Jordi Manyer, Connor Mallon +2
In this paper we present GridapTopOpt, an extendable framework for level set-based topology optimisation that can be readily distributed across a personal computer or high-performa…
