Deblurring structural edges in variable thickness topology optimization via density-gradient-informed projection

This paper introduces a density-gradient-informed (DGI) projection method combined with a robust penalization strategy to effectively eliminate low-thickness regions and deblur structural edges in variable thickness topology optimization, achieving sharp solid-void transitions with negligible impact on structural compliance.
