Minimum length scale constraints in multi-scale topology optimisation for additive manufacturing

This paper performs a combined numerical and experimental study to explore the role of minimum length scale constraints in multi-scale topology optimisation. Multi-scale topology optimisation is generally performed without considering the actual unit cell size, while an arbitrary value considerably...
