Level set-based topology optimisation of a compliant mechanism design using mathematical programming
We propose a structural optimisation method, based on the level set method and using mathematical programming such as the method of moving asymptotes (MMA), which we apply to the design of compliant mechanisms. A compliant mechanism is a monolithic joint-free mechanism designed to be flexible to obt...
