Topologically Optimized Graded Foams

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, 2023
The adoption of Nature‐inspired strategies to improve materials has fostered the introduction of cavities. But how to mass‐produce structures in which a complex architecture of cavities is point‐to‐point fine‐tuned to the local and global application requirements?

AuTO: a framework for Automatic differentiation in Topology Optimization [PDF]

open access: yesStructural And Multidisciplinary Optimization, 2021
A critical step in topology optimization (TO) is finding sensitivities. Manual derivation and implementation of sensitivities can be quite laborious and error-prone, especially for non-trivial objectives, constraints and material models.

Topology Optimization of Differentiable Microstructures

open access: yesComputer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering, 2023
Recent years have seen a growing interest in topology optimization of functionally graded microstructures, characterized by an array of microstructures with varying volume fractions. However, microstructures optimized at slightly different volume fractions do not necessarily connect well when placed adjacently.

Topology and Parametric Optimization-Based Design Processes for Lightweight Structures

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Topology and Parametric Optimization are two of the most implemented material optimization approaches. However, it is not clear in the literature which optimization procedure, or possible combination of them, can lead to the best results based on ...

Topology optimization using polytopes [PDF]

open access: yesComputer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering, 2015
Meshing complex engineering domains is a challenging task. Arbitrary polyhedral meshes can provide the much needed flexibility in automated discretization of such domains. The geometric property of the polyhedral meshes such as the unstructured nature and the facial connectivity between elements makes them specially attractive for topology optimization

Neural networks for topology optimization [PDF]

open access: yesRussian Journal of Numerical Analysis and Mathematical Modelling, 2019
Abstract In this research, we propose a deep learning based approach for speeding up the topology optimization methods. The problem we seek to solve is the layout problem. The main novelty of this work is to state the problem as an image segmentation task.

Optimal transportation, topology and uniqueness [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of Mathematical Sciences, 2011
The Monge-Kantorovich transportation problem involves optimizing with respect to a given a cost function. Uniqueness is a fundamental open question about which little is known when the cost function is smooth and the landscapes containing the goods to be transported possess (non-trivial) topology.
