RODIN project is an attempt to propose a new kind of topology optimization tools. It has been motivated by the combination of two events: (1) the industrials demands for getting past serious limits identified in the available tools, (2) the advent of a new mathematical approach in the mid 2000's presenting very interesting properties. This project has been launched in July 2012 and is supported by French public funding. It is a collaborative project that gathers ten partners (ranging from academics to software editors and industrials end-users) and firmly aims at overcoming technical and scientific locks in the area of topology optimization. RODIN is therefore an ambitious and risky project that will possibly mark the birth of a new numerical tool.
