Abstract

Nowadays, the topology optimization method is extensively adopted for the design of material microstructures to achieve desired behaviors. The present work is concerned with the optimal design of the stiffness and thermal conductivity of 3D microstructure unit cells with the specific material volume fraction in conjunction with the homogenization method and the finite element method. Numerical examples are given to demonstrate that optimal material layouts are successfully achieved and the initial layout has a great effect on the optimal microstructure.
