Good side about Topology

If you like Computation Fluid Dynamic and structural strength, you may find useful stuff here.
I stumbled upon it while reading about the Tesla valve, but unsurprisingly there is a lot of chassis stiffness related articles.
It's all about making things light and strong and efficient.

I love Science.

Jeez, it's only now I realized I made a typo in the title. *facepalm*
Amongst the good stuff, I've found an article about ForcePad, it's a free software that let you draw your 2D shape, apply force then run topology optimization on the shape.
I played with it this weekend, it's rather buggy, but very fun nonetheless.
