Zhai, X. (author), Wang, Weiming (author), Chen, Falai (author), Wu, J. (author)Recent years have seen a growing interest in topology optimization of functionally graded microstructures, characterized by an array of microstructures with varying volume fractions. However, microstructures optimized at slightly different volume fractions do not necessarily connect well when placed adjacently. Furthermore, optimization is...journal article 2024
