Multiphase Topology Optimization under Various Mix Conditions

Abstract

Multiphase topology optimization using two materials and void with modulated design area are discussed. The optimization considers two-phase design area where not all kind of materials are allowed. Minimum compliance optimizations under constant individual volumes are performed under solid isotropic material with penalization with linear finite element method. The optimized topology and final compliance are compared between the case for all-mixed design and the one with limited mixed and unmixed areas design
