Continuation strategies to mitigate convergence to low-performing local optima in topology optimization of sound transmission loss
Tom De Weer, Vanessa Cool, Elke Deckers
Dynamic topology optimization problems often suffer from convergence to low-performing local optima. This typically results in stiff designs that do not exploit dynamical phenomena…

Effect of introducing viscoelastic polyurethane on the dispersion and vibration isolation efficiency of chiral phononic crystals
Line Mardini, Andrea Bergamini, Claus Claeys +2
Phononic crystals, a sequence of masses and (damped) springs, are being used more and more in practical applications, exploiting Bragg bandgaps to attenuate vibration transmission…
