Topology optimization of load-carryingstructures using three different typesof finite elements

This thesis deals with topology optimization of load-carrying structures, in particular compliance minimization subject to a constraint on the total amount of material to be used. The main purpose of the work was to compare the following three types of finite elements for the above topology optimiza...
