Summary

Multiple topology optimization methods for structural optimization problems can be found in the literature. Among this wide range is the sequential element rejection and admission (SERA) method for fully stressed design. This procedure allows material to flow between two different material models: 'real' and 'virtual'. It works with two separate criteria for the rejection and admission of elements to efficiently achieve the optimum design and was proposed to overcome the problems encountered by the ESO and BESO methods. In this paper, the SERA method is extended to design structures with minimum compliance under multiple loading and multiple support conditions. Benchmark problems are included to show the validity of the method.
