Topological Design Optimization

Topological Design Optimization is a computational method within structural and multidisciplinary design optimization that determines the optimal material distribution in a given design domain by varying the topology, distinguished from shape or sizing optimization through its ability to alter the fundamental connectivity and geometry of voids and solids.
