Abstract
By integrating specific material properties through the manufacturing process Selective Laser Melting (SLM) into a topology optimization, the product engineer can be supported by simulation in the design process. For this purpose, a topology optimization method is being developed which takes the process-specific material properties of the SLM into account during the optimization process. This method is part of a project funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG). In this article, the influence of these specific material properties on the design is presented.
