Automatic Position Information of Web-Openings of Building Using Minimized Strain Energy Topology Optimization
This study presents a new engineering practice and idea that material topology optimization results may be utilized to optimally decide the positions of web-openings of structural members in a building structure. Material topology optimization utilizes element densities as design parameters, that is...
