[0053] Figure 3 This is a schematic block diagram of a terminal structure. Detailed Implementation

[0054] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and not intended to limit it. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, the accompanying drawings show only the parts relevant to the present invention, and not all of the structures.

[0055] Example 1

[0056] Figure 1 This invention provides a method for designing a cast aluminum rear floor structure, applicable to the design of cast aluminum rear floor structures. This method can be executed by a cast aluminum rear floor structure device, which can be implemented in software and / or hardware.

[0057] Step 1: Build a finite element model of the cast aluminum rear floor, analyze the torsional stiffness of the body-in-white, and extract the displacement of the connection point between the cast aluminum rear floor and the sheet metal based on the analysis results of the torsional stiffness of the body-in-white.

[0058] To improve topology optimization efficiency, it is recommended that the minimum mesh size for the back floor be 6mm (except for areas with thick walls), and that details such as chamfers be ignored, and that tetrahedral elements be used for modeling.

[0059] Renumber the connection points between the cast aluminum floor and the sheet metal, and create a set.

[0060] Based on the torsional stiffness results, the displacement at the connection between the cast aluminum floor and the body sheet metal is extracted (a node set can be created to facilitate the extraction of node displacements), providing input for the subsequent topology optimization of the cast aluminum floor.

[0061] Step 2: Use the displacement of the connection point between the cast aluminum floor and the sheet metal in Step 1 as the boundary condition for topology optimization, and perform topology optimization on the cast aluminum floor.

[0062] The load conditions for topology optimization of the cast aluminum floor are based on the displacements obtained from the vehicle body torsional stiffness analysis. The objective is to minimize the flexibility under the load conditions, retaining only 30% of the volume, and then perform topology optimization analysis.

[0063] Step 3: Compare the topology optimization results of the white body with those of Step 2 to see if they are consistent;

[0064] To demonstrate that the topology optimization results under the proposed operating conditions are consistent with the topology optimization analysis results based on the whole vehicle torsion condition, it is necessary to compare the topology optimization results under the two operating conditions. This comparison will not be repeated in subsequent development of the cast aluminum floor. Therefore, topology optimization analysis can be performed on the floor plate separately, which can significantly reduce computation time and improve the efficiency of analysis and optimization.

[0065] Step 4: Analyze the topology optimization results and perform parametric modeling of the stiffeners and reinforcing ribs based on parametric modeling software;

[0066] The specific method is as follows:

[0067] 41) Using parametric modeling software, build the outer surface of the reinforcing ribs and stiffeners, and then generate tetrahedral elements using Hypermesh software. The coupling between the cast aluminum floor and the sheet metal is achieved through rigid elements.

[0068] 42) Based on the constructed parameterized model, the position is controlled by controlling the baseline of the base point, the size of the stiffener is controlled by controlling the cross section of the stiffener, and the connection relationship is ensured to generate a sample space and perform parameterized optimization; the sample space is based on the Latin hypersolution method.

[0069] 43) Determine the variable matrix based on the range of the variables, drive the parameterized model changes according to the variable matrix, and generate the corresponding finite element model.

[0070] When establishing the parametric model of the stiffeners and reinforcing ribs in step 43), the corresponding position variables and cross-sectional variables are entered, and the range of the corresponding variables is determined at the same time.

[0071] Step 5: Parametric optimization of reinforcing ribs, optimizing the position, size, and number of reinforcing ribs;

[0072] The specific method is as follows:

[0073] 51) First, based on the variables and corresponding variable ranges of the parameter model established in step four, determine the variable matrix corresponding to each sample according to the Latin hypercube algorithm;

[0074] 52) Based on the variable matrix, drive the parametric software to perform meshing, couple the parametric model and the finite element model, generate the required sample space, and analyze the torsional stiffness performance of the sample space.

[0075] 53) Then, the response surface methodology is used to construct the second-order polynomial surrogate model as shown below:

[0076]

[0077] In the formula: y represents the torsional stiffness performance of the vehicle body; β0, β i ,β ii,β ij For unknown parameters; x i Let be the i-th variable; ε be the error;

[0078] 54) Take the adjustment coefficient R 2 The adjustment coefficient formula is shown below to evaluate the fitting accuracy of the surrogate model: when the adjustment coefficient is greater than 0.9, the accuracy of the surrogate model meets the condition.

[0079]

[0080] In the formula, n is the number of test sample points; yi is the simulated value of the i-th response; For the i-th response, the approximate model prediction is given. The average value is the simulation value; the error accuracy of the surrogate model is shown in Table 1.

[0081] Table 1. Error Accuracy of the Surrogate Model

[0082] proxy model object R-squared ≥ 0.9 quality 0.99 Torsional stiffness 0.99 Modal 0.98

[0083] 55) Based on the surrogate model, seek the combination of reinforcing variables that maximizes the improvement of various performance aspects; construct the optimization model as follows:

[0084] Find y(x1,x2,…,x n )

[0085] MAX{K T (x),f T (x)}

[0086] In the formula: y(x1,x2,…,x) n (x1, x2, ..., x) represents the surrogate model; n K is a variable; T (x), f T (x) represents torsional stiffness and first-order torsional frequency, respectively, and the adaptive simulated annealing method is used for optimization analysis.

[0087] Step 6: Perform performance verification on the final optimized solution.

[0088] The study aimed to verify whether the torsional stiffness of the vehicle body improved when the optimized cast aluminum floor structure was connected to the vehicle body, and to compare whether the weight of the cast aluminum floor was reduced.

[0089] Example 2

[0090] See Figure 2 This invention provides a device for designing a cast aluminum rear floor structure, comprising:

[0091] The first module is used to build a finite element model of the cast aluminum rear floor, analyze the torsional stiffness of the body-in-white, and extract the displacement of the connection point between the cast aluminum rear floor and the sheet metal based on the analysis results of the torsional stiffness of the body-in-white.

[0092] The topology optimization module is used to perform topology optimization on the cast aluminum rear floor by using the displacement of the connection point between the cast aluminum rear floor and the sheet metal as the boundary condition for topology optimization.

[0093] The comparison module is used to compare whether the topology optimization results of the white body are consistent with the topology optimization results of step two;

[0094] The second module is used to analyze the topology optimization results and to perform parametric modeling of stiffeners and reinforcing ribs based on parametric modeling software.

[0095] The optimization module is used to optimize the parameterization of stiffeners, including the position, size, and quantity of stiffeners and ribs.

[0096] The verification module is used to verify the performance of the final optimization solution.
