The optimization of manufacturable extremal elastic materials can be carried out via topology optimization using the homogenization method. We combine here a standard density-based inverse homogenization technique with an anisotropic mesh adaptation procedure in the context of a finite element discretization. In this way, the optimized layouts are intrinsically smooth and ready to be manufactured.

Abstract

The optimization of manufacturable extremal elastic materials can be carried out via topology optimization using the homogenization method. We combine here a standard density-based inverse homogenization technique with an anisotropic mesh adaptation procedure in the context of a finite element discretization. In this way, the optimized layouts are intrinsically smooth and ready to be manufactured.
