Structural Optimization for Upper Beam of Isothermal Hydraulic Press

Article Preview

Abstract:

A method of structural optimization for upper beam is proposed in order to satisfy the requirements of high stiffness and light weight of isothermal hydraulic press. Finite element analysis mold is established in ABAQUS by analyzing structural features and load conditions of hydraulic press. When original structure is retained, stiffness and strength of upper beam are checked based on finite element analysis mold. Key factors influencing stiffness and mass are extracted and analysis results are obtained by experiment design. Mathematical model for structural optimization is established by second order stepwise regression model. The goal of structural optimization is to increase stiffness of upper beam while mass is set as constraint. The stiffness of upper beam is increased by 7.04% and its mass remains unchanged basically when structural optimization is finished.
