Optimization on mechanical structure for material nonlinearity based on proportional topology method

抄録

Topology optimization is one complex method due to a final layout obtained by an initial shape is not a consideration. This paper purposes a proportional technique to determine an optimal layout by employing the topology optimization method. The objective function is to maximize an internal energy density by stress constraint based on the bi-linear elastoplasticity material properties. Fully stress design criterion is concerned to be a factor of the proportional technique for updating the design variable. Finally, the optimal layout acquires from the proportional technique and results are faster to converge with an over-relaxation factor which applied to the fully stress design.
