[Case Study] Front Beam Shape Optimization by FIAT
Introduction of a case where automatic exploration of the optimal shape for the chassis part of a vehicle was achieved!
We would like to introduce a case study from FIAT that applies our "modeFRONTIER" to the shape optimization of the chassis part of vehicles. By using material properties and dimensions as design variables, we are exploring designs that maintain energy absorption rates during collisions while being lightweight. However, applying collision phenomenon simulations to automated exploration calculations was highly burdensome. Therefore, we first simulated 90 designs using the Latin hypercube method with simulation tools, generated a response surface based on the results obtained, and applied that approximation function as a virtual solver to automatically search for the optimal solution. 【Case Study】 ■ Software Used: modeFRONTIER, MSC.Nastran, Raddioss ■ Objective: To explore lightweight designs that maintain energy absorption rates during collisions ■ Challenge: The burden of applying collision phenomenon simulations to automated exploration calculations is high ■ Methodology - Simulated 90 designs using the Latin hypercube method with simulation tools - Generated a response surface - Applied the approximation function as a virtual solver ■ Result: Achieved automatic exploration of the optimal solution *For more details, please refer to the external link or feel free to contact us.
