Multi-material topology optimization using ordered SIMP interpolation (2016, methodology): “On the other hand, SIMP-like material interpolation was recently applied in multi-material topology optimization of laminated composite beam cross sections (Blasques 2014; Blasques and Stolpe 2012), but this method also required (m−1) design variables for each finite element.”
An improved soft-kill BESO algorithm for optimal distribution of single or multiple material phases (2015, background): “For other notable recent works in this area, the reader is referred to the works of Gao and Zhang (2011); Bruyneel (2011); Blasques and Stolpe (2012); Gao et al (2013); Tavakoli and Mohseni (2014); Tavakoli (2014); Park and Sutradhar (2015); Querin et al (2015).”
Stacking sequence and shape optimization of laminated composite plates via a level-set method (2016, methodology): “Most of these works rely on a density-based method (Solid Isotropic Material with Penalization or SIMP [11], [14], Discrete Material Optimization or DMO [75], [73]).”
A Pareto-Optimal Approach to Multimaterial Topology Optimization (2015, background): “Blasques and Stolpe proposed a density-based framework for minimizing compliance of laminated composite beam cross sections [36].”
