Abstract
Advancements in deep learning techniques have not only enhanced intuitive data analysis in structural design but have also facilitated the transfer of deep-level information. The microstructural features of biomaterials, termed "structural genes," inspire engineering design with their uniqueness and complexity, containing a wealth of potential optimization resources. Structural genes are categorized into three main groups based on their functions: structure and mechanical properties, fluid dynamics and substance exchange, and energy management and interaction. The construction of a deep information database founded on these structural genes adds a new dimension to materials science research and revitalizes structural optimization methods. This study refines the text-to-image model to construct a biomaterials database, integrating it into the topology optimization design. This integration allows the design process to incorporate nature's optimization strategies, generating engineering structures that meet mechanical requirements and possess bio-inspired characteristics. Experimental validation presented in this paper showcases a novel paradigm for functional biomimetic design.
