Multi-objective optimization of collision damage of reinforced plastic anti-collision beams based on NSGA-Ⅱ
To consider the influence of low-speed collision damage on the mechanical properties of carbon fiber reinforced plastic(CFRP)anti-collision beams in design,VUSDFLD subroutine with improved Hashin failure criterion was developed to determine the dam-age degree in seven directions of CFRP anti-collision beams during low-speed collision.The shell element was used to simulate the me-chanical properties of reinforced plastic,and the explicit finite element dynamic model of CFRP anti-collision beams was established.This method was used to calculate the residual strength of reinforced plastic laminates during low-speed impact under the same experimental conditions,and the calculation results were compared with the experimental results.The simulation results agree well with the experimen-tal results.On this basis,taking the layup thickness and layup angle of reinforced plastic anti-collision beams as design variables,and taking the quality of reinforced plastic anti-collision beams and the number of damage units generated during low-speed impact as optimiza-tion objectives,the multi-objective optimization model of low-speed collision damage dynamics of CFRP anti-collision beams was estab-lished.An improved NSGA-Ⅱ non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm based on Pareto strategy was used to solve the multi-objective opti-mization.After optimization,the weight of CFRP anti-collision beam decreases from 1.02 kg to 0.76 kg,and the weight reduction rate is 25%.The number of damage units decreases from 30238 to 23206,and the damage reduction rate is 23%.The results show that the VUSDFLD subroutine developed based on Hashin failure criterion and the multi-objective optimization of low-speed collision damage of CFRP anti-collision beams are effective,which provides a reference for the optimal design of reinforced plastic anti-collision beams.
