Due to the favorable performance of structural topology optimization to create a proper understanding in the early stages of design, this issue is taken into consideration from the standpoint of research or industrial application in recent decades. Over the last three decades, several methods have been proposed for topology optimization. One of the methods that has been effectively used in stru...

a novel method to compute the stability region in power system transient stability analysis is presented. this method is based on the set analysis. the key to this method is to construct the hamilton-jacobi-isaacs (hji) partial differential equation (pde) of a nonlinear system, using which we can compute the backward reachable set by applying the level set methods. the backward reachable set of...

In the present paper, an approach is proposed for structural topology optimization based on combination of Radial Basis Function (RBF) Level Set Method (LSM) with Isogeometric Analysis (IGA). The corresponding combined algorithm is detailed. First, in this approach, the discrete problem is formulated in Isogeometric Analysis framework. The objective function based on compliance of particular lo...
