mmapy

An opensource python implementation of the Method of moving asymptotes (MMA)

The MMA algorithm is used largely in the topology optimization field. Here we have a python implementation of the algorithm. To understand the API, kindly see mma_test.py.

If you use this code in your paper, kindly cite the original MMA paper.
