Abstract

Porous structures are extensively used in engineering, and current designs of porous structures are constructed based on linear assumptions. In engineering, deformation cannot be ignored, so it is necessary to consider the effect of geometric nonlinearity in structural design. For the first time, this paper performs the geometrically nonlinear topology optimization of porous structures. This paper presents the theory of geometric nonlinear analysis, the bi-directional evolutionary method is used to search for the topological configurations of porous structures, the number of structural holes is determined by the number of periodicities. Furthermore, the optimization equation, sensitivity analysis, and optimization process are provided in detail. Lastly, four numerical examples are investigated to discuss the influence of geometric nonlinearity on the design of porous structures, such as comparisons between geometric nonlinear and linear design, the ability of geometric nonlinear design to resist cracks, changes in load amplitude and position and 3D porous designs. The conclusions drawn can provide strong reference for the design of high-performance porous structures.

多孔结构的几何非线性拓扑优化

多孔结构在工程中应用广泛，而目前的多孔结构设计都是基于线性假设。在工程中，变形是不容忽视的，因此有必要在结构设计中考虑几何非线性的影响。本文首次对多孔结构进行了几何非线性拓扑优化。本文提出了几何非线性分析理论，采用双向进化法寻找多孔结构的拓扑构型，结构孔数由周期数决定。此外，还详细介绍了优化方程、灵敏度分析和优化过程。最后，通过四个数值实例探讨了几何非线性对多孔结构设计的影响，如几何非线性设计与线性设计的比较、几何非线性设计的抗裂能力、载荷振幅和位置的变化以及三维多孔结构设计。所得出的结论可为高性能多孔结构的设计提供有力的参考。
