AI Technical Summary
Conventional shape optimization techniques struggle to effectively optimize the shape of laminated composite members in vehicle bodies, particularly in thin plate structures, as they fail to accurately reflect load and restraint conditions from the entire car body, leading to difficulties in applying optimization to individual parts and maintaining structural integrity while reducing weight.
A shape optimization analysis method and device that uses a laminated block model composed of three-dimensional elements with different material properties, connected using rigid, beam, or plane elements, to determine the optimal shape of laminated composite members within a vehicle body structure, incorporating topology optimization to improve rigidity and reduce weight.
The method enables the determination of an optimal shape for laminated composite members that enhances structural rigidity while minimizing weight, effectively addressing the limitations of existing techniques by accurately reflecting load conditions and improving material distribution within the vehicle body.
