Abstract
This paper presents an adaptive mesh adjustment algorithm for continuum topology optimization method to describe the structural boundary using nonuniform isoparametric element. A criterion on the basis of the node movement is proposed; herein, the densities and coordinates of the nodes are defined to instruct the deformation of finite elements in subsequent optimization iterations. With such a scheme, the topology optimization can start from a...
