The invention discloses a method for optimizing a
metal frame structure of a super-large panel
satellite. Relates to the technical field of large
metal structure optimization, in particular to the technical field of ultra-large panel
satellite metal frame structure optimization. The problem of
topological optimization of the whole-
satellite metal structure of the large-size flat satellite with wide single-
machine mass coverage range and complex working conditions is solved. The method comprises the following steps: S1, establishing a whole satellite finite
element model, and setting the side length of a
cell; s2, size optimization is carried out to determine the thickness of the structure foundation; s3,
topological optimization is carried out to determine the minimum
quality constraint; s4, overall index-oriented
topological optimization in the overall design area is carried out; s5, topological optimization facing local indexes in the local design area; s6, optimizing the size of the reduced unit; s7, establishing a whole satellite finite element detailed model, and removing rigidity redundancy of the structure; s8,
shape optimization is carried out; and S9, verifying the indexes. And a light-weight structural form meeting the structural continuity requirement is obtained by adopting a batch optimization method. The method shortens the satellite structure
development period and reduces the structure
mass.
