Description

Quasi-periodic hierarchical structure topology optimization method based on corrosion-diffusion operator
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of structural topology optimization, and particularly relates to a quasi-periodic hierarchical structural topology optimization method based on a corrosion-diffusion operator.
Background
The statements in this section merely provide background information related to the present disclosure and may not necessarily constitute prior art.
Biological structures in nature, such as animal bones and plant stalks, are mostly hierarchical structures. The geometrical characteristics of the composite material are represented by a plurality of scale configurations such as macroscopic, sub-microscopic and microscopic configurations, and the composite material has the characteristics of higher specific stiffness, defect resistance, multiple functions and the like. Inspired by this, many artificial hierarchical structures, such as sandwich boards, lattice materials, etc., are widely used in the fields of aerospace, biomedical, etc. In recent years, the rapid development of advanced manufacturing technologies, especially additive manufacturing technologies, provides a powerful tool for the preparation of hierarchical structures with complex geometric features, and also puts higher demands on the design method of the hierarchical structures.
The topology optimization technology designs the optimal structure configuration meeting the specific performance/material constraint by searching the optimal distribution of the material, and is an advanced and intelligent structure design method. Designing a hierarchical structure through topology optimization techniques has become a research focus in the art. The earliest review can be traced to document 1 ("rodriges, h., guidelines, j.m., and Bendsoe, M.P. (2002). iterative Optimization of material and structure. structural and multiple Hierarchical Optimization 24, 1-10"), which discloses a nested heterogeneous Hierarchical topology Optimization solution strategy that can obtain optimal material property distributions and corresponding microstructure configurations by an inverse homogenization method. However, the method has huge calculation amount, is difficult to solve the multi-constraint and multi-physical-field optimization problem, and has a limited application range.
Document 2 ("Liu, l., Yan, j., and Cheng, G. (2008). optim structure with a homogenetic Optimum. computers & Structures86, 1417-. The method is a single-layer optimization model, has the advantages of less design variables, small calculated amount, good universality and the like, and the obtained periodic hierarchical structure does not have interface discontinuity among microstructures. However, since the periodic layered structure only contains one microstructure configuration on a macro scale, the design space is small, and the improvement of the structural performance is limited.
Document 3 ("Zhang, p.; Toman, j.; Yu, y.; Biyikli, e.; Kirca, m.; chimielus, m.; To, a.c. (2015) effective Design-Optimization of Variable-Density hexagonal cellular Structure by Additive Manufacturing: the invention and variation.journal Manufacturing Science & Engineering, 137") proposes an Optimization method of quasi-periodic hierarchy Structure, which can effectively improve structural performance by optimizing the macroscopic distribution of unit cell pore diameters and is prepared using Additive Manufacturing techniques. However, this approach does not optimize the microstructure topology.
Document 4 ("Wang, y.; Chen, f.; Wang, M.Y. (2017) current design with connected hierarchical microstructure. computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and engineering,317, 84-101.") discloses a quasi-periodic hierarchy topology optimization method based on a level set framework, but it cannot be directly Applied to the variable density method topology optimization framework which is the most widely used.
In summary, the hierarchical topology optimization method disclosed in the prior art has incompatible contradictions in terms of computational efficiency, application range and structural performance.
