Force sensors on climbing robots give important information to the robot control system, however, off-the-shelf sensors can be both heavy and bulky. We investigate the optimisation of a lightweight integrated force sensor made of piezoelectric materi

We design an anisotropic, multiparametric family of optimised microstructures. The microstructures are parametrised by their Young's moduli in the three axial directions. The family is smooth, in the sense that the features are similar enough for sha

We present the piezoelectric properties of multi-poled network microstructures based on cross, Gibson-Ashby and face-centred cubic base cells at a range of solid fractions and with different polarisation profiles. Piezoelectric properties are determi

The production of porous scaffold structures using additive manufacturing is becoming widespread, however a detailed understanding of the scaffold failure mechanisms is lacking. In this research, Selective Laser Melting (SLM) is used to produce Ti-6A

Selective Laser Melting (SLM) was used to fabricate scaffolds using the titanium alloy Ti–6Al–4V. Two types of high porosity open-cell structures were manufactured: the first built from topology optimised designs with maximised stiffness, and the

We present a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) implementation of the level set method for topology optimization. The solution of three-dimensional topology optimization problems with millions of elements becomes computationally tractable with this GPU i

We present a new approach to designing three-dimensional, physically realizable porous femoral implants with spatially varying microstructures and effective material properties. We optimize over a simplified design domain to reduce shear stress at th

We compute Pareto fronts that estimate the upper bounds of the bulk modulus and fluid permeability cross-property space for periodic porous materials over a range of porosities. The fronts are generated numerically using topology optimization, which

We show that overlapping sphere packs provide useful models for the microstructure and elastic properties of sintered bronze powders. In the early stages of sintering the dilated sphere (or cherry-pit) model is superior, while at low porosities the s
