On solving the min-max problem of the stress of the Structural elements in the structural topology optimization

摘要

In this paper, we deal with the min-max problem of the stress of the structural elements in the structural topology optimization. A generalized KS function is presented which transforms the local sress to global strain energy of structure through Von Mises Criterion. The ICM method is employed for solving the topology optimization problem. Some classic numerical examples are presented which provide quality solutions and the minimum stress design to obtain the final design.
