Problems solved by technology

[0004]In order to achieve a fixed target volume, the BESO method needs to delete a certain number of units in each iteration of the solution. Mistake and wrong deletion operations may cause the structure to find the overall situation optimal solution
Although the SGA-BESO method can increase the probability of finding the global optimal solution, immature convergence is a phenomenon that cannot be ignored in the SGA method, and the results obtained by optimization are unstable. In practical applications, there is still the possibility of falling into a local optimal solution.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of lightweight design of mechanical structures, and relates to a mechanical structure topology optimization method based on multi-population genetic algorithm. Background technique [0002] In the design of mechanical structures, designers always hope to achieve the optimal performance of mechanical structures with the least amount of material. As the most basic mechanical structure design stage, topology design directly affects the subsequent shape and size design. If the structural topology is not optimal, it is difficult to obtain optimal structural performance. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the optimal topology of the structure in the initial conceptual design stage. form. The overall flexibility of the structure is an important performance that needs to be considered in the design of mechanical structures. A common situation in practice is the topology optimization problem of minimizing structural flex...
