Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
This paper proposes a level set-based method for optimizing shell structures with large design changes in shape and topology. Conventional shell optimization methods, whether parametric or nonparametric, often only allow limited design changes in shape. In the proposed method, the shell structure is defined as the isosurface of a level set function. The level set function is iteratively updated based on the shape sensitivity on the surface mesh. Therefore, the proposed method can represent an arbitrary manifold surface while dealing with topological changes, for example, from a spherical surface to a toroidal surface. We applied the proposed method to the mean compliance minimization problems of 3D shell structural designs for dome, bending plate and cantilever beam examples to demonstrate its efficacy of the proposed method.
