Summary:
This paper presents a fast and stable topology optimization method based on normalized Gaussian network. The novelty of the proposed method is to control smoothness of the device shapes obtained by the topology optimization. In this method, a regularization term which characterizes the spatial change near the shape boundaries is introduced. The proposed method is applied to optimization of a magnetic shield and synchronous reluctance motor. The optimization result shows that the present method results in smooth optimal shapes with satisfactory performance.
