...Vishrut Shah; Manish Pamwar; Balbir Sangha; Il Yong Kim Purpose The purpose of this paper is to propose an effective and efficient numerical method that can consider natural frequency in multi-material topology optimization (MMTO) and which is scalable for complex three-dimensional (3D) problems...

.... This paper aims to provide a novel concurrent topological design of structures and microscopic materials for thermal conductivity involving multi-material topology optimization (material distribution) at the lower scale. Design/methodology/approach In this work, the effective thermal conductivity...
