LATPRM, MINRAD

Bulk Data Entry Depending on the LATPRM, CLEAN value, MINRAD is either used to set the Lower Bound of the Design Variables in the Lattice Sizing Optimization Phase, or the minimum radius value for Beam Cleaning.

Parameter Values Description
MINRAD Real ≥ 0.0

Default = See Comment 2

LATPRM,CLEAN,YES
See LATPRM, CLEAN.
LATPRM,CLEAN,NO
MINRAD is used to set the value of the Lower Bound for Design Variables in the Lattice Sizing Optimization Phase.

Comments

  1. This parameter can possibly be set equal to the smallest dimension that a particular 3D Printing machine can generate.
  2. If MINRAD is specified in the input deck without any value, then the default value is set equal to ( U B 10 6 ) . Where, U B MathType@MTEF@5@5@+= feaagKart1ev2aaatCvAUfeBSjuyZL2yd9gzLbvyNv2CaerbwvMCKf MBHbqefqvATv2CG4uz3bIuV1wyUbqedmvETj2BSbqefm0B1jxALjhi ov2DaebbnrfifHhDYfgasaacH8srps0lbbf9q8WrFfeuY=Hhbbf9v8 qqaqFr0xc9pk0xbba9q8WqFfea0=yr0RYxir=Jbba9q8aq0=yq=He9 q8qqQ8frFve9Fve9Ff0dmeaacaGacmGadaWaaiqacaabaiaafaaake aacaWGvbGaamOqaaaa@3A78@ is the upper bound of the design variables for Lattice Sizing Optimization phase.
  3. If R2LRATIO and MINRAD are both specified in the input deck, the max(R2LRATIO, MINRAD) value is used for beam cleaning. R2LRATIO does not affect the lower bound of the sizing design variables in the second phase.
