Influence of the Fractal Geometry on the Mechanical Resistance of Cantilever Beams Designed through Topology Optimization

Influence of the Fractal Geometry on the Mechanical Resistance of Cantilever Beams Designed through Topology Optimization

In this work, the complex geometry of beams obtained from topology optimization is characterized through the fractal dimension (<i>F<sub>D</sub></i>). The fractal dimension is employed as an efficiency measure of the mass distribution in the beams, that is, the capacity of th...
