汽车车身材料结构匹配轻量化设计方法、系统及存储介质Automobile body material structure matching lightweight design method, system and storage medium

技术领域technical field

本发明涉及汽车结构设计领域,特别是一种汽车车身材料结构匹配轻量化设计方法、系统及存储介质。The invention relates to the field of automobile structure design, in particular to a lightweight design method, system and storage medium for matching the structure of an automobile body material.

背景技术Background technique

汽车工业是当代工业领域的重要支柱产业之一,随着汽车工业的快速发展,其所带来的环境污染、能源短缺和交通安全问题也日益凸显。环保、节能和安全已成为目前汽车工业发展所面临的主要问题,而这些问题都与汽车轻量化密切相关。世界铝业协会研究表明:当汽车自重每减10%,燃油消耗以及排放可分别降低6%~8%与5%~6%;油耗每减少1升,二氧化碳排放量就会相应减少2.45kg。从安全性的角度来说,对汽车进行减重能够有效减少刹车距离,从而降低事故发生率。无论是从节能减排还是从安全性来说,汽车的轻量化都将永无止境,与之相关的材料、成形以及设计方面的研究将一直是汽车行业中的前沿和热点。The automobile industry is one of the important pillar industries in the contemporary industrial field. With the rapid development of the automobile industry, the problems of environmental pollution, energy shortage and traffic safety brought about by it have become increasingly prominent. Environmental protection, energy saving and safety have become the main problems facing the development of the automobile industry, and these problems are closely related to the lightweight of automobiles. The research of the World Aluminum Association shows that when the weight of the car is reduced by 10%, the fuel consumption and emissions can be reduced by 6% to 8% and 5% to 6% respectively; for every 1 liter of fuel consumption, carbon dioxide emissions will be reduced by 2.45kg. From a safety point of view, reducing the weight of the car can effectively reduce the braking distance, thereby reducing the accident rate. Whether in terms of energy saving and emission reduction or safety, the lightweight of automobiles will never end, and the research on materials, forming and design related to it will always be the frontier and hotspot in the automotive industry.

汽车轻量化设计指的是在保证汽车耐撞性、安全性、稳定性、平顺性等性能指标不降低且造价不升高的情况下,合理减轻汽车重量。实现轻量化的一个途径是从汽车结构入手,通过多学科优化等先进的设计手段,优化汽车部件的拓扑结构、尺寸与形状参数,将零件复合化、薄壁化和中空化等。The lightweight design of automobiles refers to the reasonable reduction of the weight of automobiles under the condition that the performance indicators such as crashworthiness, safety, stability, and ride comfort of the automobile are not reduced and the cost is not increased. One way to achieve light weight is to start with the structure of the vehicle, optimize the topology, size and shape parameters of the auto parts through advanced design methods such as multidisciplinary optimization, and make the parts composite, thin-walled and hollow.

事实上,为了保证汽车车身结构的耐撞性并减轻其重量,不仅可以考虑对汽车车身结构中不同部件的尺寸参数进行优化,还可以通过为不同的部件合理分配不同的材料来达到这一目的。例如,在对汽车车侧身进行轻量化设计时,为了保证乘客的安全,通常希望在侧面碰撞发生时,汽车B柱的侵入量和侵入速度能够尽量小。从优化的角度来说,该问题具有两个特点:1)同时包含连续变量(即薄壁结构厚度)和离散变量(即部件材料);2)汽车B柱的侵入量和侵入速度这两个性能指标没有具体的数学表达式,只能通过有限元分析或物理实验获得。因此,这种同时考虑部件尺寸和部件材料的设计问题通常被称为车身多材料结构匹配设计。In fact, in order to ensure the crashworthiness of the car body structure and reduce its weight, it is not only possible to consider optimizing the size parameters of different components in the car body structure, but also to reasonably allocate different materials to different components to achieve this goal. . For example, in the lightweight design of the side body of an automobile, in order to ensure the safety of passengers, it is usually hoped that the intrusion amount and intrusion speed of the B-pillar of the automobile can be as small as possible when a side collision occurs. From an optimization point of view, the problem has two characteristics: 1) it contains both continuous variables (ie, the thickness of the thin-walled structure) and discrete variables (ie, the component material); 2) the intrusion volume and intrusion speed of the automobile B-pillar are both The performance index has no specific mathematical expression and can only be obtained through finite element analysis or physical experiments. Therefore, this design problem that considers both component size and component material is often referred to as body multi-material structure matching design.

在对汽车进行轻量化设计时,通常将整个设计过程描述为一个优化问题,并通过求解该优化问题来实现具体的轻量化设计。在所描述的优化问题中,一些部件的物理性能,例如碰撞吸能、碰撞峰值力、部件质量等,将被作为性能指标来衡量汽车的耐撞性、安全性等性能,而部件尺寸、结构、材料等参数则被视为设计参数。通过调整设计参数,最大/最小化这些性能指标或让这些性能指标满足一定的设计需求,即可达到不降低汽车各项性能的同时实现汽车轻量化。而车身多材料结构匹配设计问题则主要包含以下三个特点:In the lightweight design of automobiles, the entire design process is usually described as an optimization problem, and the specific lightweight design is achieved by solving the optimization problem. In the described optimization problem, the physical properties of some components, such as collision energy absorption, collision peak force, component quality, etc., will be used as performance indicators to measure the car's crashworthiness, safety and other performance, while component size, structure , material and other parameters are regarded as design parameters. By adjusting the design parameters, maximizing/minimizing these performance indicators or allowing these performance indicators to meet certain design requirements, it is possible to achieve a lightweight car without reducing the performance of the car. The multi-material structure matching design problem of the car body mainly includes the following three characteristics:

·黑盒:汽车轻量化所描述的优化问题通常不具备一个显示的表达式。这意味着,在求解这类优化问题时,往往只能知道对应于一组参数的目标函数响应,而无法获得诸如梯度、二阶导数等数学特性。Black box: The optimization problem described by vehicle lightweighting usually does not have an explicit expression. This means that when solving such optimization problems, often only the response of the objective function corresponding to a set of parameters is known, but mathematical properties such as gradients and second derivatives cannot be obtained.

·昂贵:对于很多性能指标,只能通过有限元分析等仿真工具或实际物理实验才能获得其具体的数值。这一过程将会消耗大量的时间和财力。因此,大量多次地对一些性能指标进行评价是不现实的。Expensive: For many performance indicators, their specific values can only be obtained through simulation tools such as finite element analysis or actual physical experiments. This process will consume a lot of time and money. Therefore, it is unrealistic to evaluate some performance indicators many times.

·包含两种及以上的变量类型:汽车车身多材料结构匹配设计所描述的优化问题可能同时包含诸如部件尺寸这种连续变量和诸如材料选择这种离散变量。• Inclusion of two or more types of variables: Matching design of multi-material structures for automotive bodies The described optimization problem may contain both continuous variables such as component size and discrete variables such as material selection.

值得注意的是,车身多材料结构匹配设计问题具有黑盒和昂贵两个特性。这两个特性使得我们无法对汽车部件的一些性能指标进行大量评价,也无法使用传统的基于梯度的优化方法。为了有效处理带有黑盒和昂贵特性的汽车结构设计问题,在过去的十几年里,许多基于代理模型的优化算法被提出。然而,大部分方法都针对于仅包含连续设计参数的设计问题,针对于诸如车身多材料结构匹配设计这类同时包含多种变量类型的方法比较少见。现有的针对于包含多种变量类型的方法,仅采用单一种类的代理模型。这种方式往往难以有效的近似带有多种变量类型的目标函数及约束条件,进而难以有效的引导算法找到高质量的最优解。It is worth noting that the design problem of body multi-material structure matching has both black-box and expensive properties. These two properties make it impossible to perform extensive evaluations on some performance metrics of automotive components, nor to use traditional gradient-based optimization methods. In order to effectively deal with the problem of vehicle structure design with black-box and expensive properties, many optimization algorithms based on surrogate models have been proposed in the past decade. However, most of the methods are aimed at design problems involving only continuous design parameters, and it is relatively rare to address methods that include multiple types of variables at the same time, such as the matching design of multi-material structures of car bodies. Existing methods for involving multiple variable types employ only a single kind of surrogate model. This method is often difficult to effectively approximate the objective function and constraints with multiple variable types, and it is difficult to effectively guide the algorithm to find a high-quality optimal solution.

与现有技术相比,本发明具备以下技术效果:Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following technical effects:

1.在步骤A1中,本发明采用了混合变量同时采用两种代理模型:RBF代理模型和梯度提升树代理模型处理带有多种变量类型的目标函数和约束条件。这样做的优点是,RBF代理模型和梯度提升树代理模型能够适应于不同类型的变量,即RBF代理模型适合于处理带有连续变量的目标函数和约束条件,梯度提升树模型适合于处理带有离散变量的目标函数和约束条件。由于所要求解的汽车车身多材料结构匹配问题,即,同时获得的汽车车身结构中的尺寸参数和材料参数的最优值,同时包含连续变量和离散变量。因此,同时使用这两种代理模型更有助于处理这类问题。进而,在进行汽车轻量化的时候,这种方法更容易帮助设计人员找到较为优秀的汽车轻量化设计方案,即,在满足耐撞性要求的情况下获得极轻的车身。1. In step A1, the present invention adopts mixed variables and simultaneously adopts two surrogate models: RBF surrogate model and gradient boosting tree surrogate model to deal with objective functions and constraints with multiple variable types. The advantage of this is that the RBF surrogate model and the gradient boosting tree surrogate model can adapt to different types of variables, that is, the RBF surrogate model is suitable for dealing with objective functions and constraints with continuous variables, and the gradient boosting tree model is suitable for dealing with variables with Objective function and constraints for discrete variables. Due to the multi-material structure matching problem of the automobile body to be solved, that is, the optimal values of dimensional parameters and material parameters in the structure of the automobile body obtained at the same time, both continuous variables and discrete variables are included. Therefore, using both surrogate models at the same time is more helpful to deal with this kind of problem. Furthermore, when reducing the weight of the vehicle, this method is easier to help designers find a better lightweight design solution for the vehicle, that is, to obtain an extremely light body while meeting the crashworthiness requirements.

2.在步骤A2中,我们使用了两个指标,即

则侧重于目标函数。以这种方式对A1中所生成的后代,有助于引导算法快速进入可行域,并在此基础上进一步提升目标函数的值。进而,这种方式有助于帮助设计人员快速找到符合设计需求的汽车轻量化设计方案,有利于提升设计效率,缩短设计周期。2. In step A2, we used two metrics, namely
Figure BDA00030008128000000611
and
Figure BDA00030008128000000612

Focus on satisfying constraints, i.e.
Figure BDA0003000812800000072
and
Figure BDA0003000812800000073
focus on the objective function. In this way, the offspring generated in A1 can help guide the algorithm to quickly enter the feasible region, and further improve the value of the objective function on this basis. Furthermore, this method helps designers to quickly find a lightweight automotive design solution that meets the design requirements, which is conducive to improving design efficiency and shortening the design cycle.

3.在步骤A3和A4中,我们仅使用归档集中的一部分解建立S2中所提到的优化问题,这种方式可以有效的专注于在一个局部范围内获得高精度的问题模型,进而提升获得高质量的解的效率。进而,该方法可以进一步提升轻量化设计的质量,获得更为优异的汽车轻量化设计方案。3. In steps A3 and A4, we only use a part of the solutions in the archive to establish the optimization problem mentioned in S2. This method can effectively focus on obtaining a high-precision problem model in a local range, thereby improving the Efficiency of high-quality solutions. Furthermore, this method can further improve the quality of lightweight design, and obtain a more excellent automotive lightweight design solution.

The sorting method is as follows: first, for
