An Expected Compliance Model Based on Topology Optimization for Designing Structures Submitted to Random Loads

چکیده
In this paper, we focus in developing a stochastic model for topology optimization. The principal objective of such a model is to find robust structures for a given main load having a stochastic behavior. In the first part, we present the expected compliance formulation and some results in topology optimization. Then, in order to illustrate the interest of our approach, we consider a preliminary 3D cantilever benchmark experiment and compare the obtained results with the one given by a single load approach.

Stochastic Topology Design Optimization for Continuous Elastic Materials
In this paper, we develop a stochastic model for topology optimization. We find robust structures that minimize the compliance for a given main load having a stochastic behavior. We propose a model that takes into account the expected value of the compliance and its variance. We show that, similarly to the case of truss structures, these values can be computed with an equivalent deterministic a...
متن کامل3D BENCHMARK RESULTS FOR ROBUST STRUCTURAL OPTIMIZATION UNDER UNCERTAINTY IN LOADING DIRECTIONS
This study has been inspired by the paper "An efficient 3D topology optimization code written in MATLAB” written by Liu and Tovar (2014) demonstrating that SIMP-based three-dimensional (3D) topology optimization of continuum structures can be implemented in 169 lines of MATLAB code. Based on the above paper, we show here that, by simple and easy-to-understand modificati...
متن کاملTOPOLOGY OPTIMIZATION OF STRUCTURES UNDER TRANSIENT LOADS
In this article, an efficient methodology is presented to optimize the topology of structural systems under transient loads. Equivalent static loads concept is used to deal with transient loads and to solve an alternate quasi-static optimization problem. The maximum strain energy of the structure under the transient load during the loading interval is used as objective function. The objective f...

In the present paper, an approach is proposed for structural topology optimization based on combination of Radial Basis Function (RBF) Level Set Method (LSM) with Isogeometric Analysis (IGA). The corresponding combined algorithm is detailed. First, in this approach, the discrete problem is formulated in Isogeometric Analysis framework. The objective function based on compliance of particular lo...
متن کاملExploration of Robust Topologies under the Loading Uncertainty for the Lug Structure of Super Sonic
In Super Sonic Transport (SST), thin wing structure is necessary to satisfy the high speed, economic viability and environmental compatibility requirements. Among many structures in thin wing, the lug structure which is between the body and the main wing plays important role. However, it is difficult to design of the lug structure because it is subjected many loads that have uncertainties such ...
