Summary: This paper proposes an automatic topology identification method based on measurements from widely distributed transformer terminal units (TTUs) to match the topology model in the management system with the actual topology of the distribution network. The method formulates the topology identification problem as an L2-norm minimization problem and addresses non-convexity and nonlinearity by introducing variables and proposing a linearization and convex relaxation approach.

Summary: In this paper, an approximate length scale filter strategy for topology optimization (TO) is proposed by extending a density-based TO formulation using neural networks (TOuNN). The proposed method enhances TOuNN with a Fourier space projection to approximately control the minimum and/or maximum length scales. The method does not involve additional constraints and automates sensitivity computations using the neural net's library.

Summary: In this paper, a topology optimization framework is proposed to simultaneously optimize the matrix topology and fiber distribution of functionally graded continuous fiber-reinforced composites. By using a mesh-independent representation based on a neural network, the accurate extraction of functionally graded continuous fibers can be achieved, and automatic differentiation can be employed for sensitivity analysis to improve computational efficiency. The effectiveness and computational efficiency of the proposed method are demonstrated through various numerical examples, and it is shown that the optimized continuous fiber-reinforced composites can be directly fabricated at high resolution using additive manufacturing.
