The lattice structure is obtained through a periodic array of microstructures (lattice microstructures), has excellent mechanical properties such as low density, energy absorption, vibration reduction, heat dissipation, heat insulation and the like, and is widely applied to the design of key structures in the fields of aircrafts, rail transit, medical bone implants and the like. However, the problems of single function, insufficient mechanical property, complex coupling relation between mechanical property and macroscopic distribution and the like of the periodic lattice structure lead to insufficient application potential of the lattice structure, and the gap between the application potential and the application requirement of the actual functional structural member is larger.
The topology optimization method provides a powerful optimization tool for the mechanical property design of the lattice structure. The topology optimization method can perform parallel optimization on the macrostructure distribution and microstructure configuration of the lattice structure, and realize the design of functionally graded lattice, so that the mechanical property of the lattice structure is better than that of the periodic lattice structure. In terms of functionally graded lattice topology optimization, topology optimization methods can be classified into layer-by-layer optimization, domain-by-domain optimization and point-by-point optimization. Although the functionally graded lattice structure realizes relatively better design through the spatial configuration distribution of the variable density microstructure, in practical application, the mechanical property of the lattice structure is difficult to meet the design requirement of light and high-strength performance, and especially on the main force transmission path of the structure under the high-bearing working condition, the lattice structure cannot provide mechanical property similar to that of a solid material. On the other hand, the topological configuration of the pure solid structure can provide larger rigidity performance, but design conflicts are faced in the aspects of comprehensive performances such as light weight, robustness and buckling stability of the structure.

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for purposes of illustration only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. In addition, the technical features of the embodiments of the present invention described below may be combined with each other as long as they do not collide with each other.
The full-scale parallel topology optimization method of the entity-lattice mixed configuration provided by the embodiment of the invention, as shown in fig. 1, comprises the following steps:
S1, constructing a bivariate parameterized level set function;
Entity and microstructure level set functions constructed based on an implicit modeling method are established by introducing double control parameters T k (T) and T k (T) to establish bivariate level set functions phi k (x, T) and theta k (x, T) of local unit cells, and are defined as follows:
Where the coefficients T k (T) and H k (T) are control parameters with respect to the pseudo-time T, i.e. design variables in the subsequent optimization process.

the microstructure unit cells (i.e., the solid microstructure or the lattice microstructure) are assembled to obtain the whole solid structure or lattice structure. Then, according to the level set function of the local unit cell, a parameterized level set function of the whole structure is obtained, and the parameterized level set function is defined as follows:
Wherein phi (x, T) is a parameterized level set function of the solid structure, θ (x, T) is a parameterized level set function of the lattice structure, T (T) is a global design variable of the solid structure, H (T) is a global design variable of the lattice structure, r (x, T) is a macrostructure level set function of the solid-lattice mixture, the r (x, T) >0 region represents the location of the material contained in the structure, the r (x, T) <0 region represents the blank location of the material not contained in the structure, r (x, T) =0 represents the boundary region of the material and voids in the design domain, D represents the predefined whole design domain, Ω represents the junction evolution region in the optimization, Representing the boundaries of the structure.
Specifically, for a two-dimensional structure, one cell has 4 nodes, the dimensions T k (T) and H k (T) are both 4×1, and for a three-dimensional structure, one cell has 8 nodes, the dimensions T k (T) and H k (T) are both 8×1.
Specifically, the volume fraction of the lattice microstructure unit is predefined before optimization, and the volume fraction can be changed between 0 and 1 or can be predefined at will within a range of 0 to 1. The predefined small volume fraction is 0.06 in this embodiment.
Further, for the dual design variables, design domain discretization is performed:
Design domain discretization is to divide the design domain into a number of regular quadrilateral regions (two-dimensional structures) or regular hexahedral regions (three-dimensional structures) for matching microstructural cells of corresponding dimensions, each region being further divided into fine grids to form a finite element analysis grid. The actual design domain actually comprises 2 sets of virtual grid matching entity structures and lattice structures with the same scale after being discretized, design variables (control parameters) are respectively defined on nodes of the 2 sets of virtual grids, and the two sets of design variables are written into a column vector form, wherein the definition is as follows:
T(t)=[T1(t) T2(t) T3(t) … Tm(t)]T
H(t)=[H1(t) H2(t) H3(t) … Hm(t)]T
Wherein T (T) and H (T) represent design variables of the predefined entity and lattice microstructure, m is the number of the design variables and corresponds to the number of unit cells nodes in the design domain, and the control parameters T k (T) and H k (T) of the unit cells are obtained from the T (T) and the H (T).
S2, establishing a multi-constraint topological optimization mathematical model;
The topological optimization mathematical model with the solid structure and the macroscopic structure volume as double constraints is established by taking control parameters for controlling the solid structure and the lattice structure as design variables and taking structural flexibility minimization (rigidity maximization) as an objective function, and the method comprises the following steps:

S3, decoupling a Hamilton-Jacobi (Hamilton-Jacobi) partial differential equation;
the level set function is dynamically changing over the pseudo-time t, and the process of structural topology optimization can be described as a process of dynamically changing the level set function over time. Thus, its dynamic model is expressed as:
Differentiating the pseudo time t by two sides of the equation to obtain a partial differential equation of the Hamilton-Jacobi type:
considering normal velocity v n = v n, and normal vector n is defined as Thus, a Hamilton-Jacobi partial differential equation is obtained:
The global parameterized level set function of the defined entity structure and lattice structure is brought into the original Hamilton-Jacobi differential equation, and the partial differential equation is converted into a normal differential equation, and the expression is as follows:

S5, solving an optimization model and updating double design variables;
based on the sensitivity information, a gradient-based optimization algorithm is adopted to solve the topological optimization model, design variable updating is carried out, in the solving process, when the convergence criterion is not met, the step S3 is returned, when the convergence criterion is met, iteration is stopped, and the double design variable value at the moment is used as a final value.
Further, a double optimization criterion method is adopted for solving, and a mobile asymptote optimization algorithm can also be adopted for model solving.
Further, the convergence criterion is defined as follows for reaching a given threshold or for reaching a maximum number of iterations:
Where σ is a given threshold, n max represents a given maximum number of iterations, and J (Γ) n is the objective function value for the nth iteration.
The following are specific examples:
Example 1
The optimized structure is a two-dimensional cantilever beam, and as shown in fig. 4, the two-dimensional cantilever beam has the dimensions of L×H=400×200, the left side of the design domain structure is fixed, the lower right corner applies a vertical downward concentrated load F=1N, the design domain comprises 20×10 single cells, and the single cell size is 20×20. The optimization was performed using solid unit cells and X-shaped unit cells. The entity-lattice parallel topology optimization method provided by the invention is adopted to develop the two-dimensional cantilever beam optimization design. The objective function is structural rigidity maximization (flexibility minimization), macroscopic structure volume fraction constraint is 0.5, physical structure volume fraction constraint is 0.3, and lattice structure is freely optimized under macroscopic volume constraint. After 57 steps of iteration, the optimization is finished, and the topological optimization configuration design of the mixture of the entity and the lattice is obtained as shown in fig. 5, wherein the entity structure is continuously distributed, and the lattice structure is in gradient distribution. The structural flexibility converged to 177.65, the macrostructure volume fraction converged to 0.5, and the physical structure volume fraction converged to 0.3. From the iteration curve of fig. 6, the algorithm exhibits better convergence, and both constraints satisfy the given set value.
To further illustrate the applicability and stability of the method of the present invention, the volume constraints of the solid structure (Vol_solid) were varied, set to Vol_solid 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, respectively, and the macrostructure volume fractions (Vol_macro) were all set to 0.5, and optimization was performed according to the 6 sets of constraints described above. The results are shown in fig. 7, and clear and correct configuration design can be obtained under each group of constraint conditions, so that the effectiveness of the method provided by the invention is verified. As the volume fraction of solid structures in the design domain increases, the lower the compliance value (Comp) of the structure, i.e., the higher the stiffness of the structure. But the pure solid structure design without considering the lattice is poor in robustness and buckling instability easily occurs.
Example 2
The optimization structure is a two-dimensional Michell beam, as shown in fig. 8, the Michell beam has the dimensions of L×H=600X200, the left lower corner and the right lower corner of the design domain structure are provided with simple branches and fixed constraints, the central part of the lower boundary is applied with a vertical downward concentrated load F=1N, the design domain comprises 30×10 single cells, and the optimization is carried out by adopting solid single cells and X-shaped single cells. And after the optimization is finished, the topological optimization configuration design of the mixture of the entity and the lattice is obtained, the entity structure is continuously distributed, and the lattice structure is in gradient distribution as shown in fig. 9. After 57 iterations, the structural flexibility converged to 28.48, the macrostructure volume fraction converged to 0.5, and the physical structure volume fraction converged to 0.3, and the iteration curve is shown in fig. 10. Different structural examples verify the applicability and stability of the full-scale parallel topology optimization method of the entity-lattice mixed configuration design.
Example 3
The optimized structure is a three-dimensional MBB beam, as shown in fig. 11, the MBB beam has dimensions of l×h×w=280×70×42, the bottom of the left side and the right side of the design domain is a fixed and simply supported, and a vertically downward military load f=10n is applied to the middle position of the top. The design domain comprises 20 multiplied by 5 multiplied by 3 single cells, and the single cell size is selected from three-dimensional solid single cells and body-centered cubic single cells, and the size is 14 multiplied by 14. After 67 iterations, the optimization is finished, and the topological optimization configuration design of the mixture of the entity and the lattice is obtained, wherein the entity structure is continuously distributed, and the lattice structure is in gradient distribution, as shown in fig. 12. The structural flexibility converged to 492007.88, the macrostructure volume fraction converged to 0.5, and the physical structure volume fraction converged to 0.3, and the iteration curve is shown in fig. 13.
The three-dimensional calculation example shows that the method still has better applicability and stability in the topological optimization process of the three-dimensional structure.
It will be readily appreciated by those skilled in the art that the foregoing description is merely a preferred embodiment of the invention and is not intended to limit the invention, but any modifications, equivalents, improvements or alternatives falling within the spirit and principles of the invention are intended to be included within the scope of the invention.
