Topology optimization (TO) is a method of deriving an optimal design that satisfies a given
load and boundary conditions within a design domain. This method enables effective design …

The task of providing optimal composite structures is increasingly difficult. New analysis
approaches seek to model the material at the fibre/matrix scale and increasingly more …

Generative design refers to computational design methods that can automatically conduct
design exploration under constraints defined by designers. Among many approaches …

Black-box topology optimization (BBTO) uses evolutionary algorithms and other soft
computing techniques to generate near-optimal topologies of mechanical structures …

The design of large and lightweight wind turbines is a current challenge in the wind energy
industry. In this context, this work aims to present a novel methodology to reduce the mass of …

Launching satellites into the Earth's orbit is a critical area of research, and very demanding
satellite services increase exponentially as modern society takes shape. At the same time …

Advanced manufacturing techniques, such as automated fiber placement and additive
manufacturing enables the fabrication of fiber-reinforced polymer composite components …

This paper presents a multi-component topology optimization method for the structural
assemblies that are made of components produced by die casting (MTO-D) processes …

The purpose of this study is to minimise frequency response of engine foundation using
topology optimisation. The study involves vibration response estimation of an existing …
