| contents | The design of porous infill structures presents significant challenges due to their complex geometric configurations, such as the accurate representation of geometric boundaries and the control of localized maximum stress. In current mainstream design methods, such as topology optimization, the analysis is often performed using pixel or voxel-based element approximations. These approximations, constrained by the optimization framework, result in substantial geometric discrepancies between the analysis model and the final physical model. Such discrepancies can severely impact structural performance, particularly for localized properties like stress response, where accurate geometry is critical to mitigating stress concentration. To address these challenges, we propose evolutionary de-homogenization, which is a design framework based on the integration of de-homogenization and data-driven multifidelity optimization. This framework facilitates the hybrid solid-porous infill design by bridging the gap between low-fidelity analysis and high-fidelity physical realizations, ensuring both geometric accuracy and enhanced structural performance. The low-fidelity level utilizes commonly used density control variables, while the high-fidelity level involves stress analysis based on structures with precise geometric representations. By employing a de-homogenization-based mapping method, a side-by-side correspondence between low-fidelity and high-fidelity results is established. The low-fidelity control variables are iteratively adjusted to optimize the high-fidelity results by integrating deep generative model with multi-objective evolutionary algorithm. Finally, numerical experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. |
