Abstract:

In this paper, a robust topology optimization method presents that insensitive to the uncertainty in geometry and applied load. Geometric uncertainty can be introduced in the manufacturing variability. Applied load uncertainty is occurring in magnitude and angle of force. These uncertainties can be modeled as a random field. A memory-less transformation of random fields used to random variation modeling. The Adaptive Sparse Grid Collocation (ASGC) method combined with the uncertainty models provides robust designs by utilizing already developed deterministic solvers. The proposed algorithm provides a computationally cheap alternative to previously introduced stochastic optimization methods based on Monte Carlo sampling by using the adaptive sparse grid method. Numerical examples, such as a 2D simply supported beam and cantilever beam as benchmark problems, are used to show the effectiveness and superiority of the ASGC method.
