Force-displacement curve; topology optimization; hardening and softening nonlinearities
Abstract :
[en] The objective of this study is to develop an optimization methodology to trace a prescribed force-displacement curve. For this purpose, we employ the topology optimization to find the layout of a structure that minimizes the difference from the predefined force-displacement curve. In addition, we propose a constraint that is necessary for the initial design of the structure to escape from its inherent nonlinearities. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by performing a simulation with a thin plate
