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 …

Robotics has undergone a profound revolution in the past 50 years, moving from the
laboratory and research institute to the factory and home. Kinematics and dynamics theories …

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 …

A non-intrusive reduced basis (RB) method is proposed for parametrized nonlinear
structural analysis undergoing large deformations and with elasto-plastic constitutive …

In the present paper, an explicit topology optimization approach based on moving
morphable components (MMC) with curved skeletons (central lines) is proposed. This is …

Finite elements analysis (FEM) is one of the most powerful tools for the numerical simulation
of complex industrial problems. Still new formulations and discretization schemes have to be …

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

This book has grown out of lectures and courses given at Linkö** University, Sweden,
over a period of 15 years. It gives an introductory treatment of problems and methods of …

This paper proposes a new Multi-Material Level Set (MM-LS) topology description model for
topology and shape optimization of structures involving multiple materials. Each phase is …

This paper focuses on the novel concurrent design for cellular structures consisting of
multiple patches of material microstructures using a level set-based topological shape …
