Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of computer-aided design and structural topology optimization data processing technology, and particularly relates to a robust topology optimization method for the multi-channel capacity of continuous fibers. Background Technology

[0002] In structural topology optimization and computer-aided engineering numerical calculations, algorithms based on variable density material interpolation automatically generate lightweight structural topology density distribution data through finite element analysis and gradient search iteration, based on preset mechanical boundaries and material usage limits. This type of numerical method is widely used in the design of continuous fiber reinforced composite structures, aiming to determine clear mechanical force transmission paths through algorithmic optimization. Continuous fiber forming processes have clear requirements for single-pass width, inter-pass net distance, and matrix coverage, requiring the load-bearing components to have sufficient lateral solid dimensions to accommodate a preset number of fiber passes. Conventional topology optimization algorithms mainly aim at minimizing global flexibility and volume fraction. The optimization iteration only updates the element density based on mechanical stiffness sensitivity, and cannot perceive the local geometric dimensions' requirements for fiber laying during calculation. This leads to thin rods and narrow neck defects in the generated topology data in the main force transmission branches. If the fiber path is corrected or manually reinforced after topology generation, it can easily cause excessive local bending of the fibers or even destroy the original mechanical force transmission configuration.

[0003] To eliminate narrow features, existing technologies often introduce global morphological filtering or isotropic minimum size constraint operators. However, when the total volume of the structure is limited, the global indiscriminate size penalty causes material to diffuse towards the low-load edge, resulting in insufficient material distribution in the main force transmission branches and increased flexibility. At the same time, it is difficult to backpropagate analytical derivatives from discrete skeleton-based size measurements to continuous topological variables, which easily leads to optimization iteration oscillations. Existing topology optimization data processing methods mainly have the following defects: 1. Discrete multi-fiber dimensions are difficult to establish continuous differentiable mathematical proxies, resulting in the inability to participate in the analytical sensitivity solution of design variables through the chain rule for accommodating gaps; 2. Global uniform size constraints lack spatial weighting adjustment based on local strain energy distribution, resulting in ineffective material dissipation to non-critical areas and weakening the load-bearing capacity of critical paths; 3. The strain energy values ​​of boundary supports and load concentration areas easily dominate the global constraint response, causing the optimization algorithm to oscillate in the search direction and reducing the computational convergence stability.

[0004] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by this invention is how to transform the multi-stage forming dimensions of continuous fibers into continuous differentiable geometric proxies, and combine the contribution of local mechanical bearing capacity to adaptively guide the material to directionally supplement the main force transmission branch in the optimization iteration.

[0011] Preferably, the process of constructing the differentiable manufacturing constraint function in step S5 includes the following sub-steps: Step S53, multiply the mechanical weighting coefficient at each grid cell by the corresponding smooth width gap point by point to calculate the weighted gap sum of the grid cells in the entire design domain; Step S54, calculate the sum of the mechanical weighting coefficients of the grid cells in the entire design domain, and divide the weighted gap sum by the sum of the mechanical weighting coefficients to generate the load-bearing weighted average containment gap; Step S55, construct the difference between the load-bearing weighted average containment gap and the preset manufacturing tolerance threshold as a scalar form of the differentiable manufacturing constraint function.

[0014] Compared with existing technologies, the robust topology optimization method for multi-channel capacity of continuous fibers described in this invention has the following advantages: 1. This invention decomposes the multi-fiber forming dimensions into continuous width requirements, combines the structural tensor of smooth physical density distribution to track local orientation, and uses anisotropic kernel functions to construct a continuous differentiable spatial strip geometric proxy. This transforms discrete process geometric gaps into smooth and continuous gap responses, establishes a direct analytical sensitivity feedback path for local accommodation indexes to design variables, eliminates the computational contradiction in structural topology optimization where discrete manufacturing dimensions are difficult to participate in gradient calculations, and enables the optimization algorithm to adaptively adjust the cross-sectional width of the force transmission branches during structural evolution, ensuring that the calculated topological density field directly possesses the geometric accommodation space required for multi-fiber laying.

[0015] 2. This invention obtains the load-bearing contribution of each element by extracting the strain energy density distribution of the finite element method, and introduces the load-bearing contribution as a spatial weighting factor into the aggregation function of the local width gap. This allows the update energy of the optimization gradient to actively converge on the main force transmission path. Under the condition of a given upper limit of material volume, it changes the problem of non-critical edge material accumulation and stiffness degradation in the main load-bearing area caused by uniform thickening across the entire domain. It enables the material to prioritize the compensation of the geometric width of the high stress transmission branch, achieving synergistic optimization of stiffness transmission efficiency and geometric accommodation size. It eliminates the width bottleneck of the main load-bearing area at a lower flexibility cost, and improves the overall mechanical load-bearing efficiency of the structure topology under the multi-fiber reinforcement layout.

[0016] 3. This invention introduces a smooth cutoff function into the load-bearing weight mapping to suppress the abnormal strain energy values ​​generated by concentrated loads and constrained support regions through continuous differentiability. This maintains the monotonic transmission of the strain energy gradient in the internal region, eliminates the abnormal dominance of boundary local stress concentration singularities on the search direction of the moving asymptote optimization algorithm, avoids sensitivity oscillations and design variable update stagnation caused by weight mutations, maintains numerical stability and iterative smoothness when solving multiple manufacturing constraints collaboratively, significantly reduces the number of iterative oscillation steps of the optimization algorithm in non-convex constraint space, shortens the computation time of topology optimization, and improves the solution convergence reliability of the structural topology data calculation system.

[0028] Example 1: This example combines Figures 1 to 3 A robust topology optimization method for multi-channel capacity of continuous fibers is described, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the design domain mesh data and parameters are obtained, along with load constraints, target fiber count, and target structural width. Filtering and multi-threshold projection calculations are performed on the obtained mesh data and parameters to generate erosion physical density fields, nominal physical density fields, and dilatation physical density fields. The erosion physical density field is input into a compliance contribution smoothing and truncation processing module to extract the compliance contribution of each mesh element and perform smoothing and truncation to obtain mechanical weighting coefficients.

In the nominal flexibility change rate index, with the relative unconstrained baseline (%) as the vertical axis scale, no fiber channel constraint corresponds to 0% baseline, global uniform thickening corresponds to 4.5% column height, and load-bearing weighted directional widening corresponds to 2.5% column height. In the high load-bearing three-bottleneck elimination rate index, with the bottleneck length elimination rate (%) as the vertical axis scale and a 0.0% horizontal baseline set, no fiber channel constraint is located on the baseline, global uniform thickening extends downward to the -10.5% scale position, and load-bearing weighted directional widening extends upward to the 6.0% scale position. Under the condition that the nominal flexibility change rate of the relative unconstrained baseline is maintained at 2.5% column height, the load-bearing weighted directional widening corresponds to a high load-bearing three-bottleneck elimination rate in the positive distribution range of 6.0%.

A robust topology optimization method for multi-channel capacity of continuous fibers according to claim 1, characterized in that, The process of updating the design variable field until convergence in step S6 includes the following sub-steps: Step S65, with minimizing the structural compliance under the erosion physical density field as the objective function and the upper limit of the material volume under the expansion physical density field as the volume constraint function, a multi-constraint topology optimization model is constructed in conjunction with the differentiable manufacturing constraint function; Step S66, based on the analytical sensitivity of each objective function and constraint function with respect to the design variable field, the moving asymptote optimization algorithm is used to solve the convex quadratic problem within the preset design variable variation step size, and the design variable field is updated; Step S67, the projection smoothing parameter is gradually increased in each optimization iteration step until the preset maximum continuous projection parameter is reached, and the iteration is terminated when the relative change of the objective function and the residual of the differentiable manufacturing constraint function both meet the preset convergence threshold, and the final target topology physical density field data is output.
