Minimum Feature Size Control in Level Set Topology Optimization via Density Fields
Jorge L. Barrera, Markus J. Geiss, Kurt Maute
A level set topology optimization approach that uses an auxiliary density field to nucleate holes during the optimization process and achieves minimum feature size control in optim…

Ambiguous phase assignment of discretized 3D geometries in topology optimization
Jorge L. Barrera, Kurt Maute
Level set-based immersed boundary techniques operate on nonconforming meshes while providing a crisp definition of interface and external boundaries. In such techniques, an isocont…

Hole Seeding in Level Set Topology Optimization via Density Fields
Jorge L. Barrera, Markus J. Geiss, Kurt Maute
Two approaches that use a density field for seeding holes in level set topology optimization are proposed. In these approaches, the level set field describes the material-void inte…
