考虑重心位置不确定性的无尾无人机优化设计

飞机的飞行性能与重心(CG)位置密切相关,尤其是后掠式无尾飞机的重心位置对其飞行性能影响更甚,如果重心位置发生变化,升力分布随之改变,进而影响飞机航时。针对这个问题,从气动布局和设计方法两方面,设计了一种航时对重心位置不敏感的无尾无人机(UAV)。气动布局上,提出了利用螺旋桨动力配平纵向力矩的鸥翼(GW)布局,以减小重心位置变化对升阻特性的影响;设计方法上,采用稳健性优化设计(RDO)理论,分析重心位置不确定时的航时低敏感度问题。以一架小型电动无人机为研究对象,建立了无尾无人机稳健性优化设计环境,包括总体设计、代理模型构造以及稳健性优化。分析结果表明:利用螺旋桨动力配平的鸥翼布局使重心可用范围增加了5%;静安定裕度在5%~15%变化时,该布局可以有效提高航时稳健性。采用稳健性优化得到的无人机几何参数,大幅度降低了重心位置对航时的影响,显著提升了满足约束的概率。

Integration of Manufacturing Cost into Structural Optimization of Composite Wings

 The manufacturing cost is a significant factor that must be considered in the structural design of a composite wing. A multi-objective optimization method for the tradeoff between manufacturing cost and weight of composite wing structure is developed by integrating the manufacturing cost model into the traditional wing structural optimization. A two-level optimiza-tion method is proposed to carry out the tradeoff between manufacturing cost and weight, in which the design variables include both structural layout and dimensions and a cost model is incorporated into structural optimization. The manufacturing cost model for a composite wing and the detail procedure for solving this tradeoff problem are presented. The application of the method to the composite wing structural design of an unmanned aerial vehicle is illustrated to verify the method. The applica-tion indicates that the method is able to find the Pareto optimal set of minimum structural weight and manufacturing cost. Based on the Pareto optimal set, one can conduct the tradeoff between manufacturing cost and weight of wing structures.     

A partition of unity level set method with moving knot CS-RBFs for optimizing variable stiffness composites

A partition of unity level set method with moving knot Compactly Supported Radial Basis Functions (CS-RBFs) is proposed for optimizing variable stiffness composite structures. The iso-contours of a level set function are utilized to represent the curved fiber paths, and the tangent vector of the iso-contour defines the orientation of fiber. The level set function of the full design domain is constructed according to the Partition of Unity (POU) method by a set of local level set functions defined on an array of overlapping subdomains, and they are constructed by using the CS-RBFs. The positions of knots are iteratively changed during the optimization to improve the performance of composite structures. Several examples of compliance minimization are presented.     

Material optimization: bridging the gap between conceptual and preliminary design

This paper presents a collection of tools for conceptual structure design. The underlying model is the ‘free material optimization’ problem. This problem gives the best physically attainable material and is considered as a generalization of the sizing/shape optimization problem. The method is supported by powerful optimization and numerical techniques, which allow us to work with bodies of complex initial design and with very fine finite-element meshes. The computed results are realized by composite materials. We consider a particular class of fibre-reinforced composite materials, manufactured by the so-called tape-laying technology. In the post-processing phase, stress/strain-trajectories are plotted which indicate how to place these tapes; they also show the proposed thickness of the tapes. Several examples demonstrate the efficiency of this approach to conceptual design of engineering structures.

A single-level composite structure optimization method based on a blending tapered model

In order to decrease the number of design variables and improve the efficiency of com- posite structure optimal design, a single-level composite structure optimization method based on a tapered model is presented. Compared with the conventional multi-level composite structure opti- mization method, this single-level method has many advantages. First, by using a distance variable and a ply group variable, the number of design variables is decreased evidently and independent with the density of sub-regions, which makes the single-level method very suitable for large-scale composite structures. Second, it is very convenient to optimize laminate thickness and stacking sequence in the same level, which probably improves the quality of optimal result. Third, ply con-tinuity can be guaranteed between sub-regions in the single-level method, which could reduce stress concentration and manufacturing difficulty. An example of a composite wing is used to demonstrate the advantages and competence of the single-level method proposed.

Index allocation for a reusable LOX/CH4 rocket engine

Reusable rocket engines are the core components of reusable launch vehicles, and have thus become a major focus of aerospace engineering research in recent years. In practice, subsystem design is based on the overall index allocation of an engine; therefore, a multidisciplinary optimization approach is necessary. In this study, design of a reusable methane/liquid oxygen (LOX/CH4) rocket engine with a gas generator cycle was investigated using multidisciplinary optimization. Two parameters were chosen as design variables: pressure and fuel mix ratio of the main combustion chamber. Optimization objectives were specific impulse, structural mass, and life cycle cost of the reusable rocket engine, and constraints were assigned to each discipline according to rocket design requirements. Then, an optimization model was developed, and optimal design parameters were acquired for the LOX/CH4 rocket engine. The proposed method is effective for designing the index allocation of reusable rocket engines and takes into account the multidisciplinary nature of complex systems.

Optimal design of composite lattice shell structures for aerospace applications

An optimization method for composite lattice shell structures under axially compressive loads is proposed aiming at the preliminary design. The method implements and improves some previous results of the fully analytical approach which is currently adopted at the state-of-the-art. The fully analytical approach provides the minimum mass solution under buckling and strength constraints, irrespective of other possible design limitations, such as, shell stiffness constraints. As a consequence, the minimum mass solution turns out to be satisfactory whereas other requirements are absent or automatically achieved but, on the contrary, it can drive the final preliminary configuration far from the real optimum.The proposed method implements numerical minimization allowing the designer to easily handle suboptimal configurations which are located in the vicinity of the minimum mass solution. When stiffness requirement is present (as in most cases) the benefit of this approach – in terms of weight saving with respect to the analytical design – is finally shown with a practical example.
