Abstract

The aim of this paper is to introduce the stochastic collocation methods in topology optimization for mechanical systems with material and geometric uncertainties. The random variations are modeled by a memory-less transformation of spatially varying Gaussian random fields which ensures their physical admissibility. The stochastic collocation method combined with the proposed material and geometry uncertainty models provides robust designs by utilizing already developed deterministic solvers. The computational cost is discussed in details and solutions to decrease it, like sparse grids and discretization refinement are proposed and demonstrated as well. The method is utilized in the design of compliant mechanisms.

Figures 12, 20 and 21 in Wang et al. (2011) show the normalized length scale as a function of the projection threshold η, In these figures the vertical axis is erroneously labeled as b/2R. The correct label is b/R, where b is the length scale and R is the filter radius.
