Объектом исследования является крышка люкового закрытия сухогрузного судна, служащая для обеспечения непроницаемости грузовых помещений и перевозки на ней грузов и обеспечивающая безопасность сухогрузных судов и осуществляемой на них морской перевозки грузов. Большая материалоемкость крышек снижает экономическую эффективность судна, ведет к необходимости использования мощных и массогабаритных средств подъема крышек (для съемных люковых закрытий), либо поворота и передвижения крышек (для шарнирно-откидных закрытий). Целью статьи является существенное снижение материалоемкости крышек люкового закрытия за счет рационального выбора их материала и конструктивного оформления при одновременном обеспечении требуемого уровня их надежности. Параметрическая оптимизация традиционной стальной крышки люкового закрытия сухогрузного судна проекта RSD59 может привести к снижению ее массы не более чем на 15-17. Поэтому для достижения цели работы решается задача оптимизации конструкции алюминиевой крышки на основе комплексного подхода, состоящего в последовательном использовании топологических и параметрических оптимизационных методов и выполнении на последней стадии работы снижения уровня концентрации напряжений путем оптимизации формы узлов крышки. При этом на стадии выбора конструктивно-силовой схемы крышки применяются приёмы топологической оптимизации, на стадии выбора толщин и параметров силовых элементов способы параметрической оптимизации, а на стадии конструктивно-технологического оформления узлов методы оптимизации формы. Выполненные расчетные исследования привели к следующим основным результатам: к выявлению прогрессивных конструктивно-силовых схем и конструктивно-технологических решений, обеспечивающих значительное снижению массы крышек люковых закрытий при умеренных затратах на их изготовление к высоким оценкам эффективности использования современных алюминиевых сплавов для изготовления люковых закрытий, способствующим существенному снижению их материалоемкости (примерно двукратному и более по сравнению с использованием стали), улучшению условий их функционирования и проведения погрузочно-разгрузочных работ на сухогрузных судах к выводу об эффективности использования разработанных конструкторских решений для крышек люковых закрытий при создании перспективных сухогрузных судов.A bulk carrier hatch cover, which provides cargo compartments impermeability and cargo transportation on the cover, as well as safety of bulk carriers and sea cargo transportation in them, is studied. Cover high material consumption decreases vessel profitability, causes the necessity to use either powerful and mass-dimensional cover lifting devices (for removable hatch covers) or covers rotation and movement (for hinged covers). The purpose of this paper consists in considerable decrease of hatch cover material consumption through rational selection of covers material and design at provision of the required covers reliability level. Parametric optimization of a conventional steel cover of RSD59 project bulk carrier could result in cover mass decrease by more than 15 to 17. Therefore, to achieve the work purpose, a problem of aluminum cover structural optimization was solved based on a comprehensive approach that consisted in successive use of topologic and parametric optimization methods and decrease of the stress concentration level at the last step via cover assemblies shape optimization. At that topological optimization methods were applied at the stage of selecting cover structural arrangement parametric optimization methods were applied at the stage of selecting load-carrying elements thickness and parameters, and shape optimization methods were used at the stage of structural and technology design of assemblies. The performed calculation studies resulted in the following: revealing the advanced structural arrangements and design and technology solutions that provide considerable hatch covers mass decrease at reasonable costs for their manufacture high assessment of using advanced aluminum alloys for manufacturing hatch covers that promote considerable decrease of their material consumption (approximately up to twofold or greater in comparison with steel), improving conditions of cover functioning and handling operation in bulk carriers conclusion on effectiveness of using developed design solutions for hatch covers when creating prospective bulk carriers.

The use of optimization methods in engineering is increasing. Process and product optimization, inverse problems, shape optimization, and topology optimization are frequent problems both in industry and science communities. In this paper, an optimization framework for engineering inverse problems such as the parameter identification and the shape optimization problems is presented. It inherits the large experience gain in such problems by the SiDoLo code and adds the latest developments in direct search optimization algorithms. User subroutines in Sdl allow the program to be customized for particular applications. Several applications in parameter identification and shape optimization topics using Sdl Lab are presented. The use of commercial and non-commercial (in-house) Finite Element Method codes to evaluate the objective function can be achieved using the interfaces pre-developed in Sdl Lab. The shape optimization problem of the determination of the initial geometry of a blank on a deep drawing square cup problem is analysed and discussed. The main goal of this problem is to determine the optimum shape of the initial blank in order to save latter trimming operations and costs.

Abstract This article presents an implementation of one of the latest optimization methods of obtaining light vehicle designs. First, the problem of coupling with a bolted rim is optimized using the butterfly optimization algorithm (BOA). Finally, the BOA is used to solve the shape optimization of a vehicle suspension arm. It is utilized from the Kriging metamodeling method to obtain equations of objective and constraint functions in shape optimization. At the end of the research effort in this paper, the weight reduction of the suspension arm by using the BOA is 32.9 %. The results show the BOA’s ability to design better optimum components in the automotive industry.

Topology And Shape Optimization

This work presents the framework to optimally design a cantilever for torsion mode frequency maximization. A cantilever design problem is formulated by topology and shape optimization methods. The torsion mode frequency is selected as an objective function, and the volume of the cantilever and the first bending mode frequency are constrained. Two optimization problems are defined and sequentially solved for the specific values. A new idea in this work is using a final topology obtained in the topology optimization problem as an initial shape in the shape optimization problem. The torsional mode frequency of the optimized cantilever is well improved in comparison with a nominal cantilever.
