    Abstract: To obtain the topology optimization algorithm of continuum structure which can effectively identify the effective constraints and quickly converge, based on the original Ratio-Extremum algorithm theory based on truss structure optimization, the emitter algorithm theory is introduced into the topology optimization of continuum structure. Firstly, ta... Show More

    Abstract: Nowadays, meta-materials are being studied to reduce vehicle interior noise. But it has not yet been found effective meta-materials at low frequencies below 500Hz. A panel with one core which has an excellent sound insulation where the higher the height of the core, the better the sound insulation characteristics have been founded. And so, dependin... Show More
