Abstract
Topology optimization techniques based on finite element analysis have been widely used in many fields, but most of the research and applications are based on single-material structures. Extended from the bi-directional evolutionary structural optimization (BESO) method, a new topology
optimization technique for 3D structures made of multiple materials is presented in this paper. According to the sum of each element's principal stresses in the design domain, a material more suitable for this element would be assigned. Numerical examples of a steel- concrete cantilever, two
different bridges and four floor systems are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness and practical value of the proposed method for the conceptual design of composite structures made of steel and concrete.
期刊介绍：
The Association publishes an international journal, the Journal of the IASS, four times yearly, in print (ISSN 1028-365X) and on-line (ISSN 1996-9015). The months of publication are March, June, September and December. Occasional extra electronic-only issues are included in the on-line version. From this page you can access one or more issues -- a sample issue if you are not logged into the members-only portion of the site, or the current issue and several back issues if you are logged in as a member. For any issue that you can view, you can download articles as .pdf files.
