A procedure to obtain a topology of an optimal structure considering flexibility is presented. The methodology is based on a mutual energy concept for formulation of flexibility and the homogenization method. A multi-objective optimization problem is formulated as an application of compliant mechani

Abstract
The present paper is concerned with the layout optimization of resonating actuators using topology optimization techniques. The goal of the optimization is a maximization of the magnitude of steadyβstate vibrations for a given excitation frequency. The problem formulation includes an external viscous damper at the output port which models a working load on the structure. Copyright Β© 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

In recent years, the Evolutionary Structural Optimization (ESO) method has been developed into an e!ective tool for engineering design. However, no attempts have been made to incorporate random dynamic response constraints. The optimum design of structures with dynamic response constraints is of gre
We introduce an extension of current technologies for topology optimization of continuum structures which allows for treating local stress criteria. We ΓΏrst consider relevant stress criteria for porous composite materials, initially by studying the stress states of the so-called rank 2 layered mater
