Fixed-grid hole-shape optimization for opening structures using smoothly deformable implicit curve

Hole-shape optimization for opening structures can effectively alleviate the hole-edge stress concentration; however, it requires high precision of stress analysis and high geometrical deformation capacity of the hole-edge curves. Therefore, the finite cell method is adopted in this work for high-pr...
