The invention discloses a speed
reducer gear box lightweight design method based on
topological optimization, and relates to the technical field of gear box optimization. A
processing end establishes a three-dimensional parameterized geometric model, performs
finite element mesh generation on the geometric model, optimizes
material distribution of the geometric model based on a
topological optimization algorithm, and optimizes the
material distribution of the geometric model; a
topological optimization result is parameterized into geometric features, a random generation tool is used for generating a plurality of initial variable sets, a
genetic algorithm is used for outputting an optimal variable set, a geometric model is reconstructed according to the topological optimization result and a
genetic algorithm result, and after dynamic-
static simulation is conducted on the reconstructed geometric model, the optimal variable set is obtained. And evaluating whether the performance of the reconstructed geometric model reaches the standard or not, and if not, optimizing
genetic algorithm parameters according to an
evaluation result and then cyclically reconstructing the geometric model until the performance of the reconstructed geometric model reaches the standard. The design
system intelligently optimizes a local high-stress area, so that the lightweight requirement is met, and meanwhile, the strength and rigidity balance of the structure is ensured.
