| summary |
Topological Interlocking (TI) structures have inherent advantages due to the structural characteristics of their discrete units and the diverse representation forms of these units. Previous research has summarized various methods for generating TIs on planar or curved surfaces. However, existing digital generation tools still use relatively limited methods when generating on curved surfaces. Additionally, there needs to be more control over the overall morphology, resulting in incomplete units or units that fail to meet the expected shape requirements. This paper presents a summarized method for generating TI structures based on the Truchet vault. Furthermore, it adapts the generation of TI units on curved surface grids and investigates the results of this method on various types of grids. Moreover, this paper proposes ideas for optimizing the partitioning of surface grids. Based on these ideas, specific combinations of units and grids are selected, and finite element analysis is utilized to analyze the forces and displacements of different TI unit forms. The results demonstrate that TI structures with larger unit amplitudes and higher symmetry exhibit more uniform force transmission when subjected to the same load, reducing overall stress and displacement. |
