A POD-based reduction approach for multiscale nonlinear structural design
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents POD-based reduction approach for structural optimization design considering microscopic material nonlinear microstructures. This work introduces Reduced Order Model (ROM) to alleviate the heavy computational demand of nonlinear nested multiscale procedures, particularly in an optimization framework which requires multiple loops involving similar computations. The surrogate model constructed using Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) and Diffuse Approximation reduces the computational effort for solving the microscopic boundary value problems. Multiscale analysis model (FE) is applied to link structure and microstructures in the two scales. Maximum stiffness design of the macroscopic structure is realized using a discrete level-set topology optimization model. It is shown by means of numerical tests that the reduced multiscale model provides reasonable designs as compared to those obtained by the unreduced model while with a significantly reduced computational effort.

A finite element model based on the layerwise theory is developed for the analysis of transverse cracking in cross-ply laminated beams. The numerical model is developed using the layerwise theory of Reddy, and the von Kármán type nonlinear strain field is adopted to accommodate the moderately large rotations of the beam. The finite element beam model is verified by comparing the present numeric...

متن کاملOnline Adaptive Local-Global Model Reduction for Flows in Heterogeneous Porous Media
We propose an online adaptive local-global POD-DEIM model reduction method for flows in heterogeneous porous media. The main idea of the proposed method is to use local online indicators to decide on the global update, which is performed via reduced cost local multiscale basis functions. This unique local-global online combination allows (1) developing local indicators that are used for both lo...
