Abstract This paper discusses an automated method for designing modular components that can be shared within multiple structural products, such as automotive bodies for sibling vehicles. The method is an extension of the concept of decomposition-based assembly synthesis. A beam-based topology optimization method, originally developed for First Order Analysis (FOA) of the automotive body structures, is utilized in order to obtain the “base” structures subject to decomposition. It is expected that the method will facilitate the early decisions on module geometry in automotive body structures, by enhancing the capability of the FOA system. Several case studies with two-dimensional structures are reported to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. The results indicate that two structures optimized for a similar, but slightly different boundary loading conditions are successfully decomposed to contain a component that can be shared by the structures. Several Pareto optimal decompositions are presented to illustrate the trade-offs among multiple decomposition criteria, with different weights for each objective function.

Basic Ideas

Abstract The concept of Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) was first proposed by J. Lemon at SDRC, and has been widely accepted in automotive industries. CAE numerically estimates the performance of automobiles and proposes alternative ideas that lead to the higher performance without building prototypes. However, most automotive designers cannot directly utilize CAE since specific well-trained engineers are required to achieve sophisticated operations. Moreover, CAE requires a huge amount of time and many modelers to construct an analysis model. In this paper, we propose a new concept of CAE, First Order Analysis (FOA), in order to overcome these problems and to quickly obtain optimal designs. The basic ideas include (1) graphic interfaces for automotive designers using Microsoft/Excel (2) use of sophisticated formulations based on the theory of mechanics of material, (3) the topology optimization method. Further, some prototypes of software are presented to confirm the method for FOA presented here.
