Abstract
This article presents a novel concurrent multi-scale multi-material topology optimization method for designing lattice structures composed of solid microstructure and multiple lattice microstructures while the connectivity of dissimilar lattice microstructures is assured. At the macroscale, microstructures with different predefined volume fractions are treated as different materials. Lattice microstructure can be well connected with solid microstructure. However, the disconnection between different lattice microstructures would lead to load transition problems, impeding the practical applications of lattice structures. To address this issue, a new controllable interface identification method based on the pseudo-cost domain method is proposed. Identified interface domains between different lattice microstructures are filled with solid microstructures. A modified material interpolation framework is developed with the discrete material optimization method to achieve optimal topology of the macrostructure and the distribution of microstructures. This methodology is formulated as a compliance minimization problem. Numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
