 1 | # Introduction
 2 | We propose a new multiscale topology optimization approach for the direct and simultaneous design of lattice materials, 
 3 | without material homogenization at the microscale, using adaptive geometric components. 
 4 | The adaptive geometric components are projected onto macro- and micro-element density fields to calculate the effective densities 
 5 | of grid elements. Macro-and microstructures are simultaneously optimized, considering the load and boundary conditions 
 6 | of the overall structure without any additional constraints. 3D prototypes can be made by 3D printed machine after smoothing technique is solved.  
 7 | 
 8 | Structure of DirectMultiscaleTOP package: 
 9 | 1. mainProgram: main program for running topology optimization problems. 
10 | 2. Other functions are given in subfolders. 
11 | 3. How to run DirectMultiscaleTOP 
12 |   - Define a new problem following code structures 
13 |   - Run mainProgram.m 
14 |   - Get output
15 |   - Call program for smoothing boundaries of final design to print out 3D prototypes
