Generation of ground structures for 2D and 3D design domains

摘要: Introducing the concept of a design domain to truss topology optimization, this paper presents an algorithm generating geometrically admissible ground structures on possibly concave (or even disconnected) 3D domains. That is set connections between nodal points actually respecting geometry domain. Since may be applied in other contexts presentation does not assume any specifics optimization. However, example section application optimization problem found.
