Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of engineering structure design and analysis, and in particular to a multi-material turbine disk topology optimization method considering gradient interfaces. Background Art

[0002] Multi-material topology optimization enables high-performance designs and is widely used in fields such as aerospace. By introducing gradient materials, gradient transitions between multi-material interfaces are achieved, avoiding sudden changes in material properties caused by direct connection, improving the overall strength and durability of the design, and adapting to additive manufacturing technologies.

[0003] At present, multi-material interpolation models considering gradient interfaces are mainly divided into continuous gradient models and discontinuous gradient models. On the one hand, the continuous gradient material model (functional gradient material) forms a continuous transition of mutual diffusion between multi-material interfaces. However, current manufacturing technology cannot realize the structure of such a diffuse material. On the other hand, the discontinuous and inhomogeneous gradient material model combines structural interface performance and manufacturability, providing new ideas for high-performance design. The methods for dealing with discontinuous gradient interfaces mainly include filtering method, random field method and volume fraction constraint method, among which filtering method and random field method are often used to identify single gradient materials. The volume fraction constraint method represents the gradient material by introducing multiple design variables and adjusting the volume fraction of the parent material, which increases the computational complexity.
