A surrogate model for topology optimisation of elastic structures via parametric autoencoders
Matteo Giacomini, Antonio Huerta
A surrogate-based topology optimisation algorithm for linear elastic structures under parametric loads and boundary conditions is proposed. Instead of learning the parametric solut…

An OpenFOAM face-centred solver for incompressible flows robust to mesh distortion
Davide Cortellessa, Matteo Giacomini, Antonio Huerta
This work presents an overview of mesh-induced errors commonly experienced by cell-centred finite volumes (CCFV), for which the face-centred finite volume (FCFV) paradigm offers co…

A hybrid pressure formulation of the face-centred finite volume method for viscous laminar incompressible flows
Matteo Giacomini, Davide Cortellessa, Luan M. Vieira +2
This work presents a hybrid pressure face-centred finite volume (FCFV) solver to simulate steady-state incompressible Navier-Stokes flows. The method leverages the robustness, in t…
