Topology optimization in structural mechanics T.Lewiński, S. Czarnecki, G.Dzierżanowski and T. Sokół BULLETIN OF THE POLISH ACADEMY OF SCIENCES TECHNICAL SCIENCES, Vol. 61, No. 1, 2013
Optimization of structural topology, called briefly: topology optimization, is a relatively new branch of structural optimization. Its aim is to create optimal structures, instead of correcting the dimensions or changing the shapes of initial designs. For being able to create the structure, one should have a possibility to handle the members of zero stiffness or admit the material of singular constitutive properties, i.e. void. In the present paper, four fundamental problems of topology optimization are discussed: Michell's structures, two-material layout problem in light of the relaxation by homogenization theory, optimal shape design and the free material design. Their features are disclosed by presenting results for selected problems concerning the same feasible domain, boundary conditions and applied loading. This discussion provides a short introduction into current topics of topology optimization. Read more>> |

On minimum compliance problems of thin elastic plates of varying thickness S. Czarnecki, T. Lewiński Structural and Multidisciplinary Optimization Read online>>
The paper deals with two minimum compliance problems of variable thickness plates subject to an in-plane loading or to a transverse loading. The first of this problem (called also the variable thickness sheet problem) is reduced to the locking material problem in its stress-based setting, thus interrelating the stress-based formulation by Allaire (2002) with the kinematic formulation of Golay and Seppecher (Eur J Mech A Solids 20:631–644, 2001). The second problem concerning the Kirchhoff plates of varying thickness is reduced to a non-convex problem in which the integrand of the minimized functional is the square root of the norm of the density energy expressed in terms of the bending moments. This proves that the problem cannot be interpreted as a problem of equilibrium of a locking material. Both formulations discussed need the numerical treatment in which stresses (bending moments) are the main unknowns. |

Exact analytical solutions for some popular benchmark problems in topology optimization III: L-shaped domains revisited T. Lewiński, G. I. N. Rozvany, T. Sokół, K. Bołbotowski Structural and Multidisciplinary Optimization June 2013, Volume 47, Issue 6, pp 937-942 Read online>>
The paper provides the corrections and extensions of the paper of the same title, published in vol. 35, 2008, pp. 165–174 of the current journal. The analytical solutions of Michell trusses constructed within the L-shaped domains are confirmed by the ground structure method of the truss optimization, thus giving the upper bounds of the exact solutions.

In this Authors' Reply previously presented solutions are extended to unequal permissible stresses in tension and compression, comments are made on the lack of adjoint displacement fields in so-called O-regions (memberless regions), and some computational details are explained. |
