Abstract
Many inverse problems in engineering can be considered as constrained optimization, while topology optimization is usually very challenging due to its intrinsic link with inverse problems. Under nonlinear complex constraints, it is very time-consuming to solve such topology optimization problems. Now we use cuckoo search algorithm to carry out topology optimization, and results show that distribution of different topological characteristics can be achieved efficiently.
