Today, we started our seminar series and explored innovative concepts in design and optimization. Dr. Yun-Fei Fu's presentation on "Smooth Topological Design Using SEMDOT (Smooth-Edged Material Distribution for Optimizing Topology)" introduced his SEMDOT algorithm. This algorithm generates a smooth topological boundary based on volume fraction, and can be directly printed using AM machines. It addresses various challenges in topology optimization, setting a new standard in design efficiency. Chinedu Ifediorah's presentation on "Large Scale Topology Optimization" introduces a project aimed at addressing the need for large-scale topology optimization prompted by the increasing computational resources required for optimization. This initiative focuses on developing an advanced optimization framework and streamlining its utilization through a user-friendly interface.
