This paper presents an alternative approach to dehomogenisation of elastic Rank-N laminate structures based on the computer graphics discipline of phasor noise. The proposed methodology offers an improvement of existing methods, where high-quality single-scale designs can be obtained efficiently without the utilisation of any least-squares problem or pre-trained models. By utilising a continuous and periodic representation of the translation at each intermediate step, appropriate length-scale and thicknesses can be obtained. Numerical tests verifies the performance of the proposed methodology compared to state-of-the-art alternatives, and the dehomogenised designs achieve structural performance within a few percentages of the optimised homogenised solution. The nature of the phasor-based dehomogenisation is inherently mesh-independent and highly parallelisable, allowing for further efficient implementations and future extensions to 3D problems on unstructured meshes.
