Generalized Layout Problems in Structural Optimization

一个严格的系统的方法将调查产生的初始拓扑或布局的结构成员基于数学模型和物理原理。均匀化的新方法提供了一个独特的和令人兴奋的方法来解决如何严格的结构拓扑可能优化。这种基本的新功能为通过详细布局设计进行概念演变提供了统一的方案，使用严格的原则和适当的经验知识，从而获得现实的、可制造的形状。所需的广泛技术和技能由调查小组的多样性提供。

A rigorous systematic methodology will be investigated for generating the initial topology or layout of structural members based on mathematical models and physical principles. The new method of homogenization provides a unique and exciting approach for addressing rigorously how structural topologies may be optimized. This fundamental new capability offers a unified scheme for carrying concept evolution through detail layout design, using rigorous principles together with appropriate empirical knowledge, so that realistic, manufacturable shapes can be obtained. The broad techniques and skills required are served by the diversity in the investigators team.
