MAXIMUM ENTROPY OPTIMUM DESIGN FOR PRODUCT STRUCTURE

摘要

Taking the product cost as goal function, a maximum entropy method is used to set up a mathematical model for mechanical structural optimization. By using MATLAB, the computing program is made. And then an example for a mechanical product is given out — a motorcycle frame optimum, this is an optimization with sizes, stresses and frequency constraints. Results show that the optimum plan is feasible and effective in saving cost.
