A stress-based 3D printing continuity path planning method

The application aims to provide a stress-based 3D printing continuity path planning method. The application obtains a to-be-printed model, discretizes the to-be-printed model into a hexahedral grid, the side length of the grid is twice the printing path width, and the height is the pre-printed layer thickness, and the principal stress field is obtained by using finite element analysis. Since the path is generated on a two-dimensional quadrilateral grid, the principal stress direction field is projected onto the two-dimensional domain. For the stress value of the unit close to zero, the stress direction is arbitrary, a method of uniform principal stress direction field is proposed, the stress line is extracted from the principal stress direction field, a plurality of connection rules are adopted, the isolated points are eliminated, and the continuity is optimized. Finally, each stress line is offset to generate a path with a closed loop, and different paths are connected to generate a globally continuous path. In addition, the extrusion rate is adjusted adaptively according to the path direction to alleviate the overfilling problem caused by grid discretization. The model printed by the method has strong mechanical properties under the premise of guaranteeing the surface quality and the curved surface accuracy.

The system is designed to generate ordered quadrangular meshes for three-dimensional, non-canonical surfaces. It includes a partitioning unit that divides the input surface into quadrangular fragments. The system features a computational unit connected to the partitioning unit, which transforms each fragment into a topological square using form functions.

This process results in various mesh forms, including square, rectangular, and quadrangular elements. The system further includes a mesh generation unit connected to the subdivision module, which constructs an ordered mesh composed of convex quadrangular elements. The generated mesh ensures that neighboring elements have comparable properties, and a triangular element is added if the sum of the division numbers is odd, ensuring consistency and structural integrity in the mesh.
