Abstract

The geometry in the weight reduction design is very required to be started from the conceptual design with low cost, high performance and quality. In this point, a topological shape fur optimization concerned with conceptual design of structure is important. The method used in this paper combines three optimization techniques, where the shape and physical dimensions of the structure and material distribution are hierachically optimized, with the maximum rigidity of structure and lightweight. As the applications, the technology of weight reduction design is applied on designs of aluminum control arm and inner panel of hood.
