• Topology optimization of 3D self-supporting structures for additive manufacturing (2016, background): “In terms of element units, the various boxes span the following ranges in this 160×30×70 quarter of the domain: input region [1-40, 24-30, 54-56], jaw region [136-160, 25-30, 11-12], and void region 225”
• An additive manufacturing filter for topology optimization of print-ready designs (2016, background): “This overhang angle limitation has been extensively characterized, and typically the critical angle amounts to 40–50◦ (Wang et al. 2013; Mertens et al. 2014; Kranz et al. 2015).”
• Self-supporting structure design in additive manufacturing through explicit topology optimization (2017, background): “A commonly accepted value of the maximum overhang angle amounts to 40°-50° [5, 6].”
