Topology optimization and rim design

Virtual Path Topology Design, Control and Optimization

An efficient virtual path (VP) control strategy is necessary in asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) networks to improve the utilization of network resources. Great advantages can be achieved by using the multistage VP control method, which is designed to execute the adjustment of VPs in three stages with specific tasks for each stage. In this paper, we first investigate the multistage VP control s...

Deep learning for topology optimization design

Generative modeling techniques are being rapidly developed in the field of deep learning, and they have been applied to topology optimization. The variational autoencoder (VAE) is a generative modeling technology that extends the autoencoder to generate new images with a limited latent space. We modified the basic VAE structure to encode optimization conditions and decode latent variables for t...

Topology optimization in micromechanical resonator design

A topology optimization problem in micromechanical resonator design is addressed in this paper. The design goal is to control the first several eigenfrequencies of a micromechanical resonator using topology optimization. The design variable is the distribution of mass in a constrained domain which we model via (1) the Simple Isotropic Material with Penalization Model and (2) the Peak Function M...

Topology optimization in microelectromechanical resonator design

A topology optimization problem in microelectromechanical resonator design is addressed in this paper. The design goal is to control the first several eigen-frequencies of a microelectromechanical resonator using topology optimization in order to improve the resonator’s quality of resonance. The design variable is the distribution of mass in a constrained domain which we model via (1) the Simpl...
