[0060] Please refer to the attached drawings of the specification, the present invention provides a technical solution: Figure 1 As shown, a floating brake caliper stiffness optimization analysis method comprises the following steps:
[0061] S102, establishing a finite element model for brake caliper optimization analysis;
[0062] Before establishing the finite element model for brake caliper optimization analysis, it is necessary to define the brake caliper stiffness optimization analysis working condition. In this embodiment, the preferred brake caliper stiffness optimization analysis working condition is to calculate the total axial deformation of the brake caliper under the pressure of 7 MPa in the piston cylinder; the total deformation is the absolute value of the difference between deformation A and deformation B, such as Figure 2 As shown, the brake caliper includes a brake caliper 23, a brake disc 24, a friction pad and a back plate 25.
[0063] Specifically, establishing a finite element model for brake caliper optimization analysis also includes:
[0064] Define the material properties of the brake caliper, clean up the geometry of the brake caliper assembly model, and use second-order tetrahedron elements to model the brake caliper structure model.
[0065] Among them, the brake caliper material properties are defined as shown in Table 1;
[0066] Table 1 Brake caliper material properties
[0067]
[0068] The brake caliper assembly model is geometrically cleaned. The brake assembly includes brake calipers, pistons, friction pads, brake discs and other parts. In order to improve the analysis efficiency, the brake caliper stiffness optimization analysis only considers the brake caliper model; a brake caliper optimization analysis finite element model is established. The brake caliper structural model should be the largest envelope within the brake caliper design space. Second-order tetrahedron units are used for modeling, and the mesh size is 2mm.
[0069] S104, determining stiffness optimization analysis loads and boundary conditions;
[0070] Specifically, determine the loads and boundary conditions for the stiffness optimization analysis, including:
[0071] Define the design space and non-design space for stiffness optimization analysis, where the non-design space includes the bolt connection part of the brake caliper, the piston chamber and the top of the claw, and the rest of the position is the design space;
[0072] In the vehicle coordinate system, a uniform load in the y direction is applied to the inner surface of the brake caliper piston chamber;
[0073] Constrain the clamping point to have 2, 4, and 6 degrees of freedom;
[0074] Constrain the caliper connection points in 1, 3, 4, and 6 directions of freedom.
[0075] Among them, the stiffness optimization analysis design space 26 and non-design space 27 are defined. The design space is the area that needs topology optimization, that is, the design variable, and the non-design space is the area where the structure remains unchanged during the topology optimization process. The brake caliper bolt connection part, the piston chamber and the top of the claw are defined as non-design space, and the rest of the positions are design space, such as Figure 3 As shown, it also includes a motion coupling unit 28; define the stiffness optimization analysis load and boundary conditions, use Optistruct software, Figure 4 In the coordinate system shown, a 7Mpa uniformly distributed load in the y direction is applied to the inner surface of the brake caliper piston chamber, the degrees of freedom of the claw fixing points in the 2, 4, and 6 directions are constrained, the degrees of freedom of the caliper connection points in the 1, 3, 4, and 6 directions are constrained, and the axial deformation of the caliper is monitored; Figure 4 In the figure, a is the degree of freedom in the directions of 2, 4, and 6 of the constrained claw fixing points; b is the degree of freedom in the directions of 1, 3, 4, and 6 of the constrained caliper connection points; c is the axial deformation of the monitored caliper; and d is the uniformly distributed load applied to the surface.
[0076] S106, defining an optimization analysis physical model, wherein the physical model is a physical model including response parameters, optimization constraints, optimization objectives, and optimization settings;
[0077] Specifically, the response parameters, optimization constraints and optimization objectives also include:
[0078] The response parameters include the weighted strain energy, the percentage of the designable part volume to the original volume, the reaction force at the fixed point, the total deformation of the caliper in the y direction, and the ratio function of the reaction force in the y direction of the fixed point;
[0079] The optimization objective is set to minimize the weighted strain energy, and the ratio function of the design space volume percentage to the original volume, the total deformation of the caliper in the y direction, and the support reaction force in the y direction of the fixed point is set according to the design requirements.
[0080] Among them, response parameters: the optimization is defined as weighted strain energy Weighted comp, the percentage of the designable part volume to the original volume volumefrac, the fixed point reaction force spc force, the total deformation static displacement of the caliper in the y direction and the ratio function function of the support reaction force in the y direction of the fixed point; optimization constraints: the optimization constraints are defined as the volume percentage volumefrac is less than 40%, the total deformation static displacement of the caliper in the y direction is less than 0.2mm, the ratio function function is greater than 0.8 and less than 1.2, to ensure that the forces on the three claws are evenly distributed; optimization target: the optimization target is defined as minimizing the weighted strain energy Weighted comp, that is, maximizing the structural stiffness.
[0081] Specifically, the optimization settings include:
[0082] Define design space and non-design space solid properties;
[0083] The one-way demoulding direction and symmetry surface normal of the brake caliper are set according to the casting process, and the maximum number of iteration steps, penalty coefficient, chessboard control and minimum member size are set.
[0084] Among them, the optimization settings are: define the PSOLID properties of the design space and non-design space solids, and set the one-way demoulding direction and symmetry surface normal of the brake caliper according to the casting process, such as Figure 5 As shown, the maximum number of iteration steps DESMAX = 30, the penalty coefficient DISCRETE = 1, the chessboard control CHECKER = 1, and the minimum member size MINDIM = 6 are set. The above settings can control the chessboard phenomenon and eliminate half-density units, which is more conducive to production; Figure 5 middle, Figure 5 .1 e is the demoulding direction, Figure 5 .2 where f is the normal to the symmetry plane.

[0089] Among them, the Optistruct topology optimization analysis solver is used to solve the problem and obtain the brake caliper stiffness optimization analysis unit density result, see Figure 6 ; Element density has a functional relationship with the elastic modulus of the material and takes continuous values between 0 and 1; after the optimization solution, if the element density is 1 (or close to 1), it means that the material at the unit position is very important and needs to be retained; if the element density is 0 (or close to 0), it means that the material at the unit is not important and can be removed; according to the optimization settings, the brake caliper stiffness optimization analysis only retains the elements with an element density greater than 0.4, so as to achieve efficient material utilization and lightweight design; and export the optimization results as Opti.fem files.

The number of NURBS surfaces is 2500, and the curvature is 60%. After local refinement, the Opti.stp geometry file is obtained; the reconstruction process is as follows Figure 7 .1-7.3;
[0095] Furthermore, an optimized structural finite element model is established: the geometrically reconstructed Opti.stp structure is re-meshed, the mesh size is 2 mm, the unit adopts the second-order tetrahedron C3D10M unit type, and the load and boundary conditions are the same as the stiffness optimization analysis step S104; the optimized structural finite element model is as follows Figure 8 As shown;
