Complexity Control in the Topology Optimization of Continuum Structures
A general mesh independent filter as a mean to control the complexity of topology optimization designed structures is discussed. A new mesh-independent filter, applied over the move-limits of the sequential linear programming is proposed, and it is shown that its use alleviates common problems in the continuum topology optimization, like checkerboarding, mesh dependency, as well as effects asso...
متن کاملIsogeometric Topology Optimization of Continuum Structures using an Evolutionary Algorithm
Topology optimization has been an interesting area of research in recent years. The main focus of this paper is to use an evolutionary swarm intelligence algorithm to perform Isogeometric Topology optimization of continuum structures. A two-dimensional plate is analyzed statically and the nodal displacements are calculated. The nodal displacements using Isogeometric analysis are found to be ...
متن کاملVOLUME MINIMIZATION WITH DISPLACEMENT CONSTRAINTS IN TOPOLOGY OPTIMIZATION OF CONTINUUM STRUCTURES
In this paper, a displacement-constrained volume-minimizing topology optimization model is present for two-dimensional continuum problems. The new model is a generalization of the displacement-constrained volume-minimizing model developed by Yi and Sui [1] in which the displacement is constrained in the loading point. In the original model the displacement constraint was formulated as an equali...
متن کاملContinuum Topology Optimization of Buckling-Sensitive Structures
Two formulations for continuum topology optimization of structures taking buckling considerations into account are developed, implemented, and compared. In the first, the structure undergoing a specified loading is modeled as a hyperelastic continuum at finite deformations, and is optimized to maximize the minimum critical buckling load. In the second, the structure under a similar loading is m...
متن کاملCellular Automata in Topology Optimization of Continuum Structures
In this paper, an optimization algorithm based on cellular automata (CA) is developed for topology optimization of continuum structures with shear and flexural behavior. The design domain is divided into small triangle elements and each cell is considered as a finite element. The stress analysis is performed by the Constant Strain Triangles (CST) finite elements method. The thicknesses of the i...
