The authors developed the finite element method (FEM) for micropolar elastic solids and applied it to the problem of topology optimization. The weighted residual method and 8-node isoparameteric elements were employed for the FEM analysis. The solid isotropic material with penalization (SIMP) method

This paper presents a combinatorial optimization procedure based on the simulated annealing approach for generation of optimal conΓΏguration of structural members. The work is based on altering the ΓΏnite element model of structure by removing or restoring elements to minimize the material use subject
Some ideas on the place and role of structural optimization in combination of a materials selection procedure are presented. A side rocker beam of a DutchEVO car (multidisciplinary design project of a concept car at Delft University of Technology) is considered as a case study. A structural optimiza
