Description:
This article discusses the topology optimization methods for automobile engine hood design. The aluminum inner panel of engine hood and mucilage glue regions are set as design areas, and the static performances of engine hood included modal frequency, lateral stiffness, torsional stiffness and indentation stiffness are set as the optimization objectives. The topology optimization results about different objective functions are contrasted for analysis. And based on the reasonable topology optimization result, a suited automobile engine hood designs are raised to further study. Finally, an automobile engine hood that good at all of static performances is designed, and a favorable topology optimization method is put forward for discussion.
