Optimisation of functionally graded lattice structures using isostatic lines (2017, methodology): “Various topology optimisation approaches have been developed over recent years [19, 20, 21, 22] including density-based, hard kill, level-set [23] and bio-inspired methods such as genetic algorithms.”
Introducing the sequential linear programming level-set method for topology optimization (2015, methodology): “This is known as the natural velocity extension method (Osher and Santosa 2001; van Dijk et al. 2013).”
Topology optimization using a continuous density field and adaptive mesh refinement (2018, background): “The final set of filtered densities is given by ?̄? = CHK H Tρ, (11) where CH represents the influence of the analysis mesh hanging node constraints.”
