A New Approach for the Shape Optimization of Complex Nonlinear Structures

Article Preview

Abstract:

To enhance the efficiency for the shape optimization of complex nonlinear structure, based on the FE analysis combined with the sensitivity analysis, the gradient-based Kriging (GBK) method is applied. A new criterion to determine the likely best spatial correlation parameter in GBK based on Latin Hypercube Design (LHD) presented by authors is also applied. A more practical example for the shape optimization of automotive tire is presented to show the applicability of the GBK method.
