This area is concerned with research into possible extensions of the classic voxel method, which finds new layouts based on the density distribution. The following extensions should be highlighted: 1) FET/Sheet metal - Finite Element based Topology optimization for sheet metal, which finds layouts that take into account the requirement that they are sheet metal structures. 2) FET/AM Finite Element based Topology optimization for for additively manufactured components, which finds layouts that take into account the manufacturing conditions of 3D printing.
