The paper presents a method to design fluidic devices in Stokes flow. These type of devices are essential in engineering applications from jet engines 🚀, hydraulic actuators 🧴, to heart valves 🫀

The core of our method is a new anisotropic Stokes model with a unified representation of solid, fluid and solid-fluid interface. The density-based topology optimization method allows new topologies automatically evolve during optimization
