Optimum design of lattice structures based on continuum expression using micropolar continuum theory

We construct a structural optimization method targeting lattice structures composed of a sufficiently large array of unit cells where each unit cell consists of several beam elements, with the aim of maximizing the stiffness of the entire structure under a volume constraint. In this method, micropol...
