Effect of self-weight on topological optimization of static loading structures

Topological optimization is an approach for determining the optimal shape of a structure subjected to certain boundary and loading conditions without affecting the initial performance. Each structure has a certain weight which is also included in optimization. This paper presents the mathematical ap...
