Anton Versions Save

This is native-build release

native-build requires gmsh-api, an open-source 3D finite element mesh generator.

• Doesn't overwrite the existing numpy installation.
• Fixed few issues with gmsh-api.
• Removed hull mode in design-space definition.

For more advanced results, please consider installing a taichi-build release.

This is a taichi-build release

taichi-build requires spgrid_topo_opt, a Narrow-Band Topology Optimization framework developed by Haixiang Liu (University of Wisconsin-Madison), Yuanming Hu (MIT CSAIL), Bo Zhu (Dartmouth College), Wojciech Matusik (MIT CSAIL), Eftychios Sifakis (University of Wisconsin-Madison).

• Accurate and reliable results.
• 2.5x faster than native-build
• Cuda support.
• Tested on Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04.
