An improved size, matching, and scaling synthesis method for the design of meso-scale truss structures
… design of mesoscale lattice structures as a topological optimization problem, treating each strut diameter in the structure as a design variable. For structures with a fewer number struts, these optimization methods can converge, but will generally be very time-consuming. For structures with …

Simulation and design optimization of wave propagation in heterogeneous materials
… benefit from the use of numerical simulation and optimization techniques. Accurate numerical simulations can describe the propagation of waves through heterogeneous materials once the geometry and material properties are defined. Optimization methods can help determine arrangements of component …

Nonlinear Dynamics of Energy Harvesting Ocean Buoys
… plate capacitors are studied to determine how topological optimization can be applied to identify nonintuitive capacitor plate patterning that maximize average power dissipated through an electrical circuit during energy harvesting. Coupled electromechanical equations of motion are derived that …

Procedural generation of vascular networks for tissue engineering
… for medical simulation (Constrained Constructive Optimization) is developed, which shows substantial performance benefits and better computational scaling compared to the traditional approach. However, CCO has a number of deficits which can only be overcome at great expense, such as high asymmetry …
