A line of engineering research seeks to develop computers that can tackle a class of challenges called combinatorial optimization problems. These are common in real-world applications such as ...

In this paper, an explicit and implicit hybrid topology optimization method is proposed for the design of multiple materials structure. The explicit topology optimization employs the moving morphable ...

Additive Manufacturing (AM), or as commonly referred to 3D printing is a rapidly conquering manufacturing process 1. The basic idea, that the parts can be created additively, opens a new perspective ...
