Optimum design of plate structures with frequency constraints
Abstract
Achieves efficient structural optimization of plate structures while the design constraints are multiple frequency constraints. Reduces the computational cost of optimization by approximating the frequencies using the Rayleigh quotient. Uses an optimality criteria method to solve each of the approximate problems. The creation of a high quality approximation is the key to the efficiency of the method. Also, with the great number of design variables, the optimality criteria methods are robust approaches. Thus the combination of approximation concepts and optimality criteria methods forms the basis of an efficient tool for optimum design of plate structures with frequency constraints. Presents examples and compares the results with previous work.
