Design method for partition variable thickness composite laminate

Abstract

Provided is a design method for a partition variable thickness composite laminate. In a global optimization stage of continuous variables of an airfoil class structure, with the target of lightest mass, with limitation of buckling, deformation, strength, and a plurality of kinds of angular ply proportional relations of fixation of composite laminates, through finite element modeling and a continuous variable numerical optimization technology, optimization of the integrated structure and proportion of angular plies in each partition of a composite panel is realized. In a discrete variable optimization stage, a composite variable thickness skin plate discrete variable optimization strategy is provided, to realize integrated ply sequence design of the variable thickness plate. A design result needs to ensure mechanical property of the structure and maximum continuity of the plies, and meanwhile engineering constraint and manufacturing requirement are satisfied. The method can realize organic relations of optimization information of continuous variables and discrete variables, and light weight and overall mechanical properties given by a continuous variable optimization result are ensured, and various engineering constraint and maximum continuity requirement of plies are satisfied.

Problems solved by technology

The parameter settings have a great influence on the results. If the parameters are not set properly, the optimal solution may not be found; at the same time, the algorithm requires a large amount of calculation, and may fail to optimize the larger-scale variable-thickness panel plate optimization problem
