| الوصف: | Structural optimization (topology, shapes, sizing) is an important tool for facilitating the emergence of new concepts in structural design. Normally, topology optimization is carried out at the early stage of design and then shape and sizing design are performed sequentially. Unlike traditional topology optimization method, explicit methodologies have attracted a great deal of attention because of the advantages of shortcuting the costly CAD/CAE processes while dealing with low order number of design variables compared to implicit method (such as SIMP). This paper aims at presenting an adaptation of a flow-inspired approach so-called Moving Node Approach (MNA) in topology optimization. In this approach, the discretization is decoupled from the material distribution and the final objective is to recognize the best beam assembly while minimizing compliance. The paradigm has here changed and new design variables are used such as nodes location, elements length/orientation and size providing a lower number of design variables than pixels-based. The methodology is validated using 2 classical testcases in the field of Topology Optimization: the Cantilever beam and the L-Shape problem. |
