Multi-physics topology optimization of functionally graded controllable porous structures: Application to heat dissipating problems

Graded porous structures can improve the design performance with a smooth transition of material properties over the domain. We present a multi-physics topology optimization approach for designing functionally graded porous structures. As an application, we present a formulation to optimize heat dis...
