A Topology Optimization Method Based on Non-Uniform Rational Basis Spline Hyper-Surfaces for Heat Conduction Problems

This work deals with heat conduction problems formulation in the framework of a CAD-compatible topology optimization method based on a pseudo-density field as a topology descriptor. In particular, the proposed strategy relies, on the one hand, on the use of CAD-compatible Non-Uniform Rational Basis...
