Topological optimization of magnetic pulse welding coils with a connectivity-constrained particle swarm optimization algorithm

A connectivity-constrained optimization methodology based on a discretized particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is proposed for the continuum structural design of a magnetic pulse welding coil. To address the classical continuum topological challenges of conductors, such as simple connectivit...
