Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of steel structure design, and specifically relates to a multi-dimensional collaborative optimization design method and system for steel structures based on digital modeling. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of my country's construction industry, new materials and technologies are increasingly being used. Steel structures, owing to their advantages such as structural stability, ease of installation, and excellent seismic resistance, are gaining widespread application. Compared with traditional concrete and masonry structures, steel structures are particularly suitable for the construction of large-span, super-high-rise buildings due to their light weight. They also offer advantages such as relatively short construction periods and recyclable materials. In the petrochemical, power, and logistics sectors, steel plant buildings and equipment supports are highly sought after for their flexibility and reusability. With advances in materials science and information technology, steel structure design is evolving towards higher performance, lower costs, and greater sustainability. However, in the actual design process, architects and engineers often face multi-dimensional optimization challenges, such as how to reduce costs, minimize energy consumption, and ensure structural stability and safety.

[0003] Steel structures are typically designed and optimized using methods based on computer-aided design (CAD) software. These methods assess the stability and safety of structures by setting different design parameters and applying finite element analysis (FEA) technology for performance simulation. However, traditional design methods focus solely on structural safety or economic efficiency, lacking comprehensive consideration of dimensions such as construction feasibility and environmental impact (such as carbon emissions). Furthermore, they lack automated optimization tools and rely on trial and error based on engineers' experience, making it difficult to quickly respond to complex multi-objective optimization needs and unable to effectively adapt to complex and changing engineering design requirements and environmental conditions.

[0004] Therefore, a digitally modeled multi-dimensional collaborative optimization design method and system for steel structures is needed to solve the problems in existing technologies such as the lack of multi-dimensional comprehensive considerations and the lack of automated optimization tools, making it difficult to quickly respond to complex multi-objective optimization needs. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a digitally modeled multi-dimensional collaborative optimization design method and system for steel structures to solve the problems raised in the above background technology.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a digitally modeled multi-dimensional collaborative optimization design method for steel structures, comprising:

[0007] S1. Establish a fully parametric digital model including construction process parameters and environmental protection indicators;

[0008] S2. Construct a multi-objective evaluation system for structural safety, economy, construction feasibility, and environmental impact;

[0009] S3, using the improved multi-objective evolutionary algorithm for automatic optimization to select 10 groups of candidate solutions;

[0010] S4. Generate a visual interface and support human-computer interaction decision-making, and generate an optimization report.

[0011] It should be noted that the step S1 includes establishing a geometry-topology-property integrated model of the steel structure based on BIM technology, supporting dynamic binding of the size, material, and connection parameters of beams, columns, and node components;

[0012] Construction process parameters are introduced, and a built-in construction constraint rule library is included, including hoisting constraints and welding specifications. Hoisting constraints include the association of tower crane rated load, arm length, operating radius parameters with component weight and lifting point location; welding specifications include the binding of groove angle, weld grade, welder efficiency parameters with node structure;

[0013] Integrated environmental indicators include carbon emission parameters and resource consumption parameters. Carbon emission parameters include coupling with the life cycle assessment database to assign a carbon emission factor to each material and process. Resource consumption parameters include defining material recovery rates and renewable material ratio indicators.

[0014] Through deep integration with finite element analysis software through API interface, meshing, solution calculation and result return are automatically triggered after parameter modification.

[0015] It is further worth noting that step S2 includes constructing a structural safety target system, constructing an economic evaluation target system, constructing a construction feasibility evaluation target system, constructing an environmental impact assessment target system, and integrating a multi-target evaluation system. The structural safety target system, the economic evaluation target system, the construction feasibility evaluation target system, and the environmental impact assessment target system are integrated into a single multi-target evaluation system. The weighted summation method is used to integrate the multi-target functions into a single fitness function:

[0016] F total =w1F1+w2F2+w3F3+w4F4

[0017] Among them, w i is a dynamic weight, satisfying w1+w2+w3+w4=1,

[0018] In the conceptual design stage, w1=0.6, w2=0.3, w3=0.1, w4=0,

[0019] During the detailed design phase, w1=0.4, w2=0.3, w3=0.2, w4=0.1.

[0020] It should be further explained that step S3 includes adopting the improved NSGA-III algorithm, introducing a reference point mechanism, generating a uniformly distributed Pareto front solution in the hyperdimensional target space, and avoiding the clustering phenomenon of the solution set of the traditional algorithm;

[0021] The target weight is used as the algorithm input to dynamically adjust the fitness function during the evolution process;

[0022] Train the random forest model, predict the convergence speed of different parameter combinations based on historical optimization cases, and prioritize high-potential individuals;

[0023] Filter out the solutions that do not meet the hard constraints, retain the Pareto frontier solutions, and select 10 groups of candidate solutions.

[0024] As a preferred embodiment, step S4 includes presenting the optimization results in a three-dimensional scatter plot, where the axes correspond to safety, economy, and environment, respectively, and supports engineers to select a preferred solution by rotating the view;

[0025] Adjust target weights in real time and observe the dynamic offset of solution sets;

[0026] Developing virtual scenes based on the Unity engine allows engineers to check the lifting sequence and welding work space from a first-person perspective, simulate the impact of extreme weather on construction, and automatically adjust the work sequence;

[0027] Generate an optimization report including a parametric model, carbon inventory, and construction simulation video.

[0028] Furthermore, the invention concept of proposing a multi-dimensional collaborative optimization design method for steel structures using digital modeling is the same as that of the invention. This solution proposes a multi-dimensional collaborative optimization design system for steel structures using digital modeling, including:

[0029] Digital modeling unit, used to build a digital foundation for steel structure design and achieve dynamic association between design parameters and performance indicators;

[0030] The BIM parametric modeling module, based on the BIM platform, creates a 3D geometric model of the steel structure and supports dynamic binding of topological relationships, material properties, and load condition parameters. Digital design allows engineers to automatically update associated components by adjusting a single variable, reducing repetitive modeling work.

[0031] Construction process database, with a built-in construction constraint rule library, including lifting equipment parameters, welding process specifications, and on-site assembly sequence data;

[0032] A multi-dimensional objective function construction unit drives the collaborative optimization of multi-dimensional objectives through algorithms, replacing manual trial and error.

[0033] Safety objective function construction module defines stress ratio and displacement limit constraints based on FEA results to ensure that the structure meets regulatory requirements;

[0034] The economic objective function construction module establishes a cost model, including material unit price, processing fee, and transportation fee;

[0035] The construction feasibility objective function building module quantifies indicators such as the number of hoisting times, welding workload, and construction period;

[0036] An environmental impact objective function building module, coupled with a life cycle assessment database, calculates the carbon footprint of material production, construction, and demolition stages;

[0037] Dynamic adjustment module, introducing reference point mechanism, generates uniformly distributed Pareto front solutions in hyperdimensional objective space, avoiding the clustering phenomenon of solutions in traditional genetic algorithms in multi-objective optimization;

[0038] The multi-objective optimization module uses the improved NSGA-III algorithm to achieve collaborative optimization of structural safety, economy, construction feasibility, and environmental impact, and generates the Pareto frontier;

[0039] The visual decision-making module presents the optimization results in a three-dimensional scatter plot, with the axes corresponding to safety, economy, and environment respectively. It supports engineers to select preferred solutions by rotating the view and output an optimization report.

[0040] Compared with the prior art, the digital modeling steel structure multi-dimensional collaborative optimization design method and system provided by the present invention have at least the following beneficial effects:

[0041] By building a multi-objective evaluation system for structural safety, economy, construction feasibility, and environmental impact, multi-dimensional collaborative optimization is achieved. Construction process parameters and environmental indicators are integrated through digital modeling units to ensure that all aspects of factors are taken into full consideration in design decisions. Design efficiency is significantly improved through automated optimization and algorithm-driven design. Through a visual decision-making platform, engineers can interactively select the optimal solution, adjust target weights, and observe the dynamic offset of the solution set. VR construction simulation supports engineers in verifying decisions in a virtual environment, improving the accuracy and efficiency of decisions. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
