Topology optimization has undergone a tremendous development since its introduction in
the seminal paper by Bendsøe and Kikuchi in 1988. By now, the concept is developing in …

Topology optimization (TO) is a promising numerical technique for designing optimal
engineering designs in many industrial applications. It is expected that it might become an …

Topology optimization is the process of determining the optimal layout of material and
connectivity inside a design domain. This paper surveys topology optimization of continuum …

This review paper provides an overview of the literature for topology optimisation of fluid-
based problems, starting with the seminal works on the subject and ending with a snapshot …

In this paper, the cold plates are designed to cool the rectangular lithium-ion battery packs
by the topology optimization method. The topology optimization method obtains the channel …

This paper presents a unique solution to the problem of heat transfer intensification in shell-
and-tube latent heat thermal energy storage units by means of high conducting fins. We …

This work presents the application of density-based topology optimisation to the design of
three-dimensional heat sinks cooled by natural convection. The governing equations are the …

This work suggests a design method of liquid-cooled heat sink based on topology
optimization. First, a multi-objective optimization problem is developed in order to manage …

The focus of this article is on topology optimization of heat sinks with turbulent forced
convection. The goal is to demonstrate the extendibility, and the scalability of a previously …

This paper demonstrates the application of the density‐based topology optimisation
approach for the design of heat sinks and micropumps based on natural convection effects …
