- Abstract
The topology optimization of dynamic stress constraints is highly nonlinear and singular and has been little studied. Dynamic stress based on progressive structural optimization is only available by applying the modal iteration method, but due to the nonlinear limitations of the modal superposition method, there is an urgent need to develop a progressive structural optimization method based on dynamic stress sensitivity under direct integration. This method is for the dynamic stresses under non-periodic loading with iterative cycle updating variations. This article proposes a topological optimization method of continuum structures with stress constraints under an aperiodic load based on the Bi-directional Evolutionary Structural Optimization Method (BESO). First, the P-norm condensation function was used to obtain the global stress to approximate maximum stress. By introducing the Lagrange multiplier, the design goal was to increase the P-norm stress on the basis of the smallest volume. After that, based on the dynamic finite element theory, the sensitivity of each cell formula of the objective function and the constraint conditions of the design variables were strictly derived. Then, the performance evaluation index was put forward based on volume and stress, and the convergence criterion based on the performance evaluation index was defined. This method solves the topology optimization problem of stress constraints under a non-periodic load and the topology optimization problem of stress constraints under a periodic load, such as a simple harmonic load.
