Multidisciplinary simulation and design optimization of a variable Multidisciplinary variable cross-section cantilever beam

摘要

Aiming at the need of multi-objective optimization design of the common beam in engineering, this paper optimized the beams' carrying capacity and anti-vibration ability based on optimization design platform of Insight, which integrated ProE and Ansys software. Through automatic iteration of the beam's 3D modal data and simulation results, one ideal optimization solution can be obtained by using NLPQL algorithm. Compared with initial design, optimization Results' performance parameter improved markedly. This standard method and steps can be promoted to engineers, which involve beam's finite element analysis and design optimization.
