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

Topology optimization has undergone a tremendous development since its introduction in
the seminal paper by Bendsøe and Kikuchi in 1988. By now, the concept is develo** in …

With the diversification of engineering structure performance requirements and the
continuous development of refinement of processing and manufacturing, structural design is …

In this paper an ordered multi-material SIMP (solid isotropic material with penalization)
interpolation is proposed to solve multi-material topology optimization problems without …

This paper presents a compact and efficient 88-line MATLAB code for the parameterized
level set method based topology optimization using radial basis functions (RBFs), which is …

This review paper provides an overview of different level-set methods for structural topology
optimization. Level-set methods can be categorized with respect to the level-set-function …

The integration between 3D concrete printing (3DCP) and topology optimization (TO)
enables the fabrication of structurally efficient components without expensive formwork and …

This paper proposes a new topology optimization method, which can adjust the geometrical
complexity of optimal configurations, using the level set method and incorporating a fictitious …

Metamaterials are defined as a family of rationally designed artificial materials which can
provide extraordinary effective properties compared with their nature counterparts. This …

This paper proposes a new Multi-Material Level Set (MM-LS) topology description model for
