Manufacturing-oriented topology optimization has been extensively studied the past two
decades, in particular for the conventional manufacturing methods, for example, machining …

Design sensitivity plays a critical role in inverse and identification studies, as well as
numerical optimization, and reliability analysis. Herein, we review the state of design …

This paper describes a topology design method for simple two-dimensional flow problems.
We consider steady, incompressible laminar viscous flows at low-to-moderate Reynolds …

Tangent operators and design sensitivities are derived for transient non‐linear coupled
problems. The solution process and the formation of tangent operators are presented in a …
