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 ...

Damage localization using experimental modal parameters and topology optimization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This work focuses on the developement of a damage detection and localization tool using the Topology Optimization feature of MSC.Nastran. This approach is based on the correlation of a local stiness loss and the change in modal parameters due to damages ...

Topology optimisation: increasing the speed and reliability of design [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this paper, topology optimisation is applied to the design of the rear fuselage of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). A comparison is drawn between the performance of a design created through evolutionary structural optimisation (ESO) and a baseline ...

Multi-material topology optimization based on symmetric level set function using the material definition with perfect symmetric property

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2021
This paper provides a vector-valued level set-based topology optimization method for multiple materials. The proposed method is characterized by a perfectly symmetric representation of multi-material by a vector valued level set function, which lowers ...

Efficient combination of topology and parameter optimization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This paper presents a combination method of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and topology optimization. With this method a better result can be achieved compared with the sequential ap-plication of the two optimization methods.
