Garg, Chirag (author)In a high-precision system that performs measurements or tooling on a workpiece, alignment of the tool and workpiece is of prime importance. To prevent misalignment, which leads to a loss in accuracy and precision, unwanted vibrations in structures must be attenuated. Topology Optimization (TO) is evolving as a mature design tool that provides...master thesis 2022

Verbart, A. (author), Langelaar, M. (author), Van Keulen, A. (author)In this paper, we propose a new method for topology optimization with local stress constraints. In this method, material in which a stress constraint is violated is considered as damaged. Since damaged material will contribute less to the overall performance of the structure, the optimizer will promote a design with a minimal amount of damaged...journal article 2015
