Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of multidisciplinary design optimization technology for mechanical products that considers uncertainties, and particularly relates to a multidisciplinary collaborative design optimization method for connectors based on an adaptive surrogate model. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of the manufacturing industry, mechanical equipment and system structures are becoming increasingly complex and diverse. Multidisciplinary design optimization methods, as a methodology for solving complex system optimization problems, can comprehensively evaluate different disciplines during disciplinary analysis. For disciplines with coupling effects, methods such as disciplinary decoupling or collaborative solving can be adopted to eliminate mutual influence to a certain extent. By introducing intelligent optimization algorithms and strategies, the entire system design optimization process can be rationally allocated and arranged, improving the efficiency of design optimization and system performance indicators, shortening development time, and saving costs. Therefore, research on multidisciplinary design optimization methods for mechanical systems is of great significance.

[0003] Collaborative optimization (CO) is a hierarchical optimization method that decomposes engineering tasks into two levels: system-level and discipline-level optimization. The basic idea is to construct a system layer to coordinate inconsistencies in the solutions from different sub-disciplines. Each sub-discipline, when optimizing, can temporarily disregard the influence of other disciplines and only need to satisfy its own constraints. The goal of discipline-level optimization is to minimize the difference between the optimization result of that discipline and the target value provided by the system-level optimization. Inconsistencies between the optimization results of different disciplines are coordinated by the system-level optimization. Through multiple iterations between the system-level and discipline-level optimizations, the results converge to a most accurate value.

[0004] Currently, some studies have combined multidisciplinary design optimization methods and collaborative optimization methods for optimization in many fields.

[0005] For example, Chinese invention patent document CN105205275A, published on December 30, 2015, discloses a multidisciplinary design optimization method for missile and engine integration based on variable correlation. This method includes constructing a quantitative hyperellipsoidal model of variable correlation based on variable intervals, establishing a multidisciplinary collaborative optimization model for missile and engine integration using a collaborative optimization method, and constructing and solving the multidisciplinary design optimization model for missile and engine integration under variable correlation conditions. This invention combines the hyperellipsoidal model with interval theory, solving the problem of inaccurate design results caused by artificially severing the correlation between variables, thus better meeting the actual design requirements of products.

[0006] For example, Chinese invention patent document CN110059415A, published on July 26, 2019, discloses a multidisciplinary design method for high-speed pantographs based on a collaborative optimization algorithm. Based on multidisciplinary design theory, it analyzes the design factors affecting the working performance of high-speed pantographs and classifies them into disciplinary categories. Then, it performs numerical analysis on the design parameters of each discipline, derives the mathematical expressions of the design objectives for each discipline, and establishes corresponding optimization design models. Next, based on the global sensitivity method, it analyzes the coupling relationship and coupling strength of the design variables in the optimization design models of each discipline. According to the coupling strength of the design variables, it determines the system-level and discipline-level design variables, and uses a multidisciplinary collaborative optimization algorithm to solve for the optimized values ​​of the design variables in the optimization models of each discipline. Based on the optimized values ​​of the design variables, it analyzes the optimization results of the pantograph and establishes a three-dimensional solid model of the pantograph. This invention improves the working performance of the pantograph, enhances the current collection quality of the pantograph-catenary system, and provides a new design research approach for high-speed pantographs.

[0007] For example, Chinese patent document CN113239516A, published on August 10, 2021, discloses a multidisciplinary reliability design optimization method for turbine rotors considering uncertainties. This method includes a multi-level, multidisciplinary modeling and design optimization method for complex mechanical systems; a multi-source heterogeneous uncertainty analysis and reliability multidisciplinary design optimization method for complex mechanical systems based on approximate reliability analysis; a multi-source heterogeneous uncertainty analysis and reliability multidisciplinary design optimization method for complex mechanical systems based on numerical simulation reliability analysis; and the introduction of the UBMDO method into the field of turbine rotor design to perform multidisciplinary design optimization of turbine rotors considering uncertainties. This invention combines system hierarchical control strategies, collaborative optimization methods, saddle point approximation methods, and subset simulation uncertainty analysis methods to solve the problem of inaccurate design results caused by the artificial neglect of uncertainty factors in traditional design methods, thereby meeting the high reliability requirements of turbine rotor products.

[0008] The aforementioned published literature demonstrates from different fields that combining multidisciplinary design optimization methods and collaborative optimization methods can solve problems such as inaccuracy, performance, and reliability of the corresponding technologies.

[0009] Compared to connectors in general mechanical equipment, connectors used in specialized lifting platform slewing machines operate in environments characterized by high speed and high load. Their load conditions, operating conditions, environmental conditions, and structural layout are more complex. Damage to the mechanical structure during operation is caused by the continuous accumulation of factors such as constantly changing loads, changing stress distribution due to rotational speed, and continuous degradation of material properties. To achieve the optimization goal of structural lightweighting, it is necessary to analyze multiple disciplines affecting the performance of connectors in specialized lifting platform slewing machines, ensuring that the lightweighting goal is achieved without compromising performance. Furthermore, when the disciplines involved are difficult to quantitatively describe mathematically, the nonlinearity of the optimization problem increases, leading to biased results. Therefore, a multidisciplinary collaborative design optimization method using an adaptive surrogate model needs to be considered to solve the lightweighting problem of connectors in specialized lifting platform slewing machines. Summary of the Invention

[0010] To address the problems of low computational efficiency caused by the inability of traditional design optimization methods to perform parallel design across multiple disciplines, and excessive theoretical limitations due to the inability to provide quantitative mathematical descriptions for complex engineering problems, this invention proposes a multidisciplinary collaborative design optimization method for connectors based on an adaptive surrogate model. This method combines uncertainty theory, surrogate model theory, and collaborative optimization theory to overcome the limitations of the widespread application of collaborative design optimization methods in practical engineering fields. It is particularly suitable for connectors of special-purpose lifting slewing platforms, achieving the goal of lightweighting these products.

[0011] The technical solution of this invention is:

[0012] A multidisciplinary collaborative design optimization method for connectors based on an adaptive surrogate model includes the following steps:

[0013] A multidisciplinary collaborative design optimization model for the connector of a special-purpose lifting slewing platform is constructed based on an adaptive surrogate model. A design optimization model for the connector is then constructed based on the adaptive surrogate model. Reliability analysis of the coupled mechanical properties of the connector under multi-physics fields is performed, followed by design optimization. The multidisciplinary approach includes at least strength and vibration disciplines.

[0014] The reliability analysis includes:

[0015] (1) Conduct random uncertainty factor analysis on the connecting parts of the special lifting tool slewing platform;

[0016] (2) Make assumptions about the environmental factors of the special lifting tool slewing platform connector under complex working conditions;

[0017] (3) Consider the stress and failure modes of each design point of the special lifting tool slewing platform connector, and incorporate the strength performance and vibration into the design optimization and reliability analysis;

[0018] When constructing the design optimization model of the connecting parts of the special lifting tool slewing platform, it is required to achieve the best lightweight effect of the connecting parts. The influence of inertia on the connecting parts under normal working conditions needs to be considered, and the shear stress is applied vertically to the surface of the connecting parts to simulate the effect of force.

[0019] The specific steps in the above process are as follows:

[0020] S1. The construction of the adaptive surrogate model is as follows: First, an initial Kriging surrogate model related to the performance function and constraints of the optimization model is constructed. Then, the EI (exponential integral) function prediction point method and the self-loop optimization strategy are introduced into the initial Kriging surrogate model to obtain an adaptive surrogate model that can iteratively optimize the prediction point.

[0021] The specific process of constructing the initial Kriging proxy model is as follows: Based on the data near the design variable sample points, the information of other unknown variables is fitted by weighted combination of the data near the design variable sample points.

[0031] Furthermore, step S1 includes the following sub-steps:

Represents a polynomial parameter vector; This represents the correlation vector between design variables and sample points. Indicates transpose; where, It can be expressed by equation (8):

[0038] (8)

[0039] S12. Substitute the predicted point N1 into the EI function expression, find its maximum value through the monotonicity of the EI function, and use it as the new predicted point N2 to replace the original predicted point. Repeat the iterative steps of solving the replacement through the self-loop optimization strategy until no new predicted point is generated or the value of the new predicted point changes within a small interval.

[0040] S13. Then, we obtain the adaptive proxy model based on the EI function and the self-loop optimization strategy.

[0041] S2. Apply the adaptive surrogate model obtained in step S1 to the collaborative design optimization method to construct a multidisciplinary collaborative design optimization model with approximate performance functions at the system level and approximate constraints at the discipline level. The specific steps are as follows:

Ultimately, a system is formed as follows: Figure 2 The diagram illustrates a multidisciplinary collaborative design optimization technique for the connector of a dedicated lifting slewing platform based on an adaptive surrogate model, considering uncertainties.

This allows the invention to meet the lightweight target requirements of special lifting tool slewing platform connector products.
