Structural optimization of mechanical components using radial basis function and CAD-CAE integration approach

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This paper presents a framework of CAD-CAE integration applied to structural optimization of mechanical components. The processes of design, analysis and redesign in the cycle of structural optimization are performed seamlessly without the interaction of the designer. This method utilizes the automatic module which most of commercial CAD-CAE systems support the users the ability of customization and automation of repeated tasks based on common programming languages. For optimization technique, radial basis function as an approximation-based optimization is used to generate the objective functions and constraints in form of inexpensive explicit functions. Proposed approach makes the structural optimization process easier, convenient and more computational benefit especially in collaborative design environment.
