The emerged "Bones like" structures are pretty impressive. With certain constraints, a "connected bones" structure emerged, which similar to humans and birds in the examples presented in this video. However, this work seems to focus on the optimation method, and I am pretty interested in the optimized problem. Are there some references?
Sorry you are are 30 years to late. The basic algoithm was discovered in the 90ties and is widely used in industry for decades. What is impressive here is the resolution.
Hello! This looks amazing, how could one implement this code in practice? and would it be possible to export the end product to a popular CAD modelling software in formats such as STL or OBJ? Thanks.
Amazing. But are those filaments really useful, for an elastic problem ? I mean it's probably what limits the manufacturing. Is there a way to put a limit for the thickness ?
I think they do load distribution, which is intuitively what comes out when you simulate such structures with/without fine structures - the local stresses are much lower with the fine structures present. But good question, I am also puzzled how much is the structure a true optimum vs how much does it arise as an 'artefact' of the algorithm
