📝 Abstract
This paper presents a comparative study of multimaterial topology optimization (MMTO) using the extended SIMP, Discrete Ma- terial Optimization (DMO), and generalized shape functions (gSF) ap- proaches. The design domain is parametrized using hexagonal elements. Each element has six neighboring elements, thereby improving element connectivity and yielding a relatively uniform local mesh structure. This characteristic reduces mesh-related effects on the optimized designs com- pared with conventional triangular and quadrilateral discretizations. Struc- tural compliance is minimized at the prescribed volume fractions. The optimization is performed using the method of moving asymptotes. The resulting optimized topologies are compared in terms of material distri- bution, structural performance, convergence behavior, and the character- istics of the obtained material interfaces. The comparative investigation provides insights into the working principles and performance of the ex- tended SIMP, DMO, and gSF interpolation schemes for MMTO.
