|a The integration of topology optimization (TO) and additive manufacturing (AM) technologies can create significant synergy benefits, while the lack of AM-friendly TO algorithms is a serious bottleneck for the application of TO in AM. In this paper, a TO method is proposed to design self-supporting structures with an explicit continuous self-supporting constraint, which can be adaptively activated and tightened during the optimization procedure. The TO procedure is suitable for various critical overhang angles (COA), which is integrated with build direction assignment to reduce performance loss. Besides, a triangular directional self-supporting constraint sensitivity filter is devised to promote the downward evolution of structures and maintain stability. Two numerical examples are presented; all the test cases have successfully converged and the optimized solutions demonstrate good manufacturability. In the meanwhile, a fully self-supporting design can be obtained with a slight cost in performance through combination with build direction assignment. © 2022 Tech Science Press. All rights reserved.
