Description |
Structural optimization for light-weight structure of vehicle is studied. Optimization concepts, simple first-order models of a vehicle structure’s physical behaviors, design sensitivity analysis and its physical meaning, structural optimization methods are covered in the lecture. All student must propose their creative ideas for definition of optimization problem for light-weight structure and solve the optimization problem to learn applicability of optimization technologies to practical vehicle design. |
Objectives |
This course aims at solid understanding of the principles of automotive body structural design and optimization. |
