Cover Story: This paper presents a novel topology optimization method combining a parameterized level set function with genetic algorithms. Using B-spline interpolation reduces variables, enabling global search and avoiding local minima—a common issue with traditional gradient methods. Implemented in MATLAB, the approach employs a penalty operator to improve convergence speed. It not only effectively finds the global optimum but can also generate good initial solutions for faster local methods. Tested on 2D structures, this robust technique offers a promising alternative for complex topology design. View this paper
