    Dynamic FEM analysis is valid for designing rotating machinery to reduce its vibration problem when we may ensure enough accuracy of the analysis. Surrogate multiple objective optimization method is one of the most effective methods for structural identification improving the FEM analysis model of a structure to adjust the natural frequency analysis results to the experimental results. In this study the structural identification method is applied to coil mounted stator core of an induction motor to determine the Young's modulus of the principal components on the FE model minimizing the analysis errors of the natural frequencies of the 2-lobe and 3-lobe circular modes to the corresponding experimental results. The accurate FE model of the end-windings is obtained by this method.

    The Proceedings of Design & Systems Conference  2020  The Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers
     

    There are various methods for estimating the vibration characteristics. One of the reasons for this is the need to reduce noise and vibration in industrial electrical equipment from the viewpoint of environmental loading. We focus on transformers as one of the equipment. In transformers, coils and iron cores stretch by magnetostriction and generate noise on the boundaries of them. Precise estimation of the vibration characteristics of transformers using finite element method is important to reduce the noise. However, the specification of material constants of iron cores is very difficult because cores consist of laminated thin steel plates. The slippage between plates affects macroscopic material constants. In this paper, the Newton method based on the Adjoint variable method is applied to obtain the experimental values of eigenfrequencies, which are the characteristics of vibration. In addition, the identification of material constants is verified so that the error between the experimental and the measured values is zero.

  • Identification of muscle activity in swallow motion using medical image and anatomical data
    Azegami Hideyuki; Ono Shinjiro; Takeuchi Kenzen; Michiwaki Yukihiro; Kikuchi Takahiro
    The Proceedings of Mechanical Engineering Congress, Japan  2020  The Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers
     

    This paper presents a formulation to identify the muscle activities from shape variation of organs in a swallow motion. Using a tongue model consisting of hyper elastic body and multi-muscle fibers, we consider that the shape variation is realized by the compulsory displacement on the boundary, and that muscle activities are assumed as initial stresses generated in the directions of the muscle fibers. The identification problem of the muscle activities is formulated using the magnitudes of the initial stresses as the design variables and the L2 squared norm of the reaction force on the boundary by the compulsory displacement as the cost function of minimization. Solution of the problem is presented based on the scheme using the H1 gradient method for topology optimization problem of density type. A numerical example using a previously developed data is introduced to show the effectiveness of the present approach.

    This paper presents a formulation and solution of an identification problem of the muscle activities in an organ when a deformation of the organ was observed on boundary. This study is motivated by a medical interest of wishing to know the mechanism of swallow motion and cause of aspiration. In order to elucidate the mechanism, it is necessary to identify the contraction movement of the muscles. In this study, we assume that an organ consists of hyper elastic body, and the contraction movement is a finite deformation due to the generation of the anisotropic and inelastic strain. The strain is modeled as a function of a design variable which controls the contraction rate. Based on the assumption, we formulate a state determination problem of hyper elastic deformation by the compulsory displacement on the observed boundary using a given data. Using its solution, we define an objective function by the integral of the squared norm of the reaction force over the observed boundary, and construct an optimization problem seeking the design variable that minimize the objective function. Solution of the problem is presented as an iterative scheme using the H1 gradient method for topology optimization problem of density type. Numerical examples for a cubic and cylinder bodies demonstrste that the deformations are reproduced by the identified design variables.

  • 121 Shape Optimization Technique Considering Interference with the Other Parts
    TAKEUCHI Kenzen
    The Proceedings of OPTIS  2010  The Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers
     
    This paper describes a shape optimization technique considering the interference with the other parts or tools. During the shape optimization of mechanical structures, some geometrical constraint conditions, namely, its manufacturing process, or interference with the other parts or tools must be considered. The author and the other researchers developed some shape restriction techniques based on the traction method in previous researches. However, the usability and the stability of them are sometimes insufficient for the consideration of interference in actual applications. In this research, a measurement of the part of the design domain overlapped with the interference domain is evaluated and defined as a constraint function. According to this definition, the consideration of interference can be rewritten to the constraint condition of that the constraint function is zero. This approach was implemented based on a general-purpose structural optimization software, and applied to some optimization problems. The validity of this approach was confirmed by numerical results.

    In this paper we propose a new method to design a reinforcement for a given thin shell structure such as body structure of a vehicle by utilizing a structural optimization method based on the level set method. In this method the allowed design space is defined around the given structure and the optimal reinforcement is created utilizing the level set based optimization method. The proposed method can give a designer more useful information of topology and shape of the reinforcement than the conventional topology or shape structural optimization methods. We demonstrate the efficiency of the method by showing a result where the optimal reinforcement is found for a simple given structure made by thin shell.

    FURUYA Kohei; TAKEUCHI Kenzen
    The Proceedings of the Dynamics & Design Conference  2008  The Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers
     
    Structural topology optimization has been applied to the various problems, and accepted into industrial as a useful tool. But, in some case, numerical instabilities such as checkerboard patterns appear. For the problem, smoothing method called H^1 gradient method has been proposed. In this paper, applying H^1 gradient method to maximizing eigenvalue problem, it is shown that the smooth topology can be obtained. And, showing difficulty of applying the topology optimization to vibration problem, the new approach to maximize eigenvalue considering static stiffness is proposed.

    In design of shoes or prosthetics, it is desired to control contactstress appropriately. In the previous study, a possibility to design anelastic continuum made by bonding two materials that deforms with anassigned deformation under a constant traction force was presented bysolving the shape optimization problem of the interface. In this study,assuming that the traction force is generated by elastic contact withother elastic continuum, a shape optimization problem of the interfaceto uniformize contact stress is dealt. For elastic deformation,geometrical nonlinearity is considered. Contact phenomenon is formulatedbased on the Lagrange multiplier method. For reshaping method, thetraction method is used to keep smoothness of the interface.

    Topology optimization problems of continua have been solved as findingproblem of the optimum distribution of density using the homogenizationmethod or the density method to relate density to stiffness. In thesolution, it has been known that numerical instabilities such ascheckerboard patterns or mesh-dependencies may appear in the caseassuming constant distribution of density in element-by-element, andthat in the case assuming continuous distribution of density thesenumerical instabilities can be prevented. In this study, a method basedon the smoothing gradient method that was presented by one of theauthors is presented. Based on the method, improvement of the smoothnesscan be discussed in the mathematical view.
  • 3138 A Shape Restriction Technique Using Multipoint Constraint on Traction Method
    TAKEUCHI Kenzen; TSUKINO Makoto
    The proceedings of the JSME annual meeting  2007  The Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers
     
    In structural optimization, the shape of structure must be satisfied with some constraint conditions considering manufacturing process, mechanical symmetry and outward appearance. This paper describes a shape optimization technique for symmetrical structures using multipoint constraints based on traction method. Shape variation of traction method is obtained as a solution of a boundary value problem of linear elastic continuum loaded with traction in proportion to the shape gradient. In the shape variation analysis, multipoint constraints are introduced to keep the symmetry of the structure. This technique is applied to a simple optimization problem of circular cross section cantilever. The validity of this technique is confirmed by comparison between theoretical result and the numerical result. Furthermore, a numerical result of a shape optimization problem of a road wheel is shown as a practical application.

    In this paper, a nonparametric boundary shape optimization technique based on traction method considering die drawing and draft angle is proposed. Shape variation in general traction method is obtained as a solution of a boundary value problem of linear elastic continuum loaded with traction in proportion to the shape gradient of objective functional or constraint functional. A penalty term, denotes a virtual work by draft angle variation of boundary surface, is introduced into the equation oi virtual work in the shape variation analysis. An example of shape optimization problems considering the die drawing was analyzed using the technique. Appropriate result shape is obtained without any remarkable additional cost such as memory area, calculation time and troublesome optimization data preparation.

    This paper presents numerical results of boundary shape and topology optimization problem for a three-dimensional arm design of linear elastic continuum with respect to minimization problem of volume under a mean compliance constraint. For boundary shape optimization, a program using a spring-loaded traction method was used. The spring-loaded traction method was proposed as an improvement of the traction method in convergence and a procedure for determining the velocity of the domain variation by solving a displacement of a pseudo-elastic body defined in the domain with distributed spring on boundary by the loading of a pseudo-external force in proportion to the negative value of the shape gradient. For topology optimization, a commercial program combining the topology optimization method based on the homogenization method and the basis vector method was employed. From the results of analyses for a three-dimensional arm design problem by the two kinds of optimization programs, it was demonstrated that there was the case that the only topology optimization obtained limited result.

    This paper presents an improvement of the traction method that was proposed as a solution of shape optimization problems of domain boundaries in which boundary value problems of partial differential equations are defined. Using the theory of the gradient method in Hilbert space the principle of the traction method is presented. Based on the principle a new method is proposed by selecting another bounded coercive bilinear form from the previous method. The proposed method obtains domain variation with solution of a boundary value problem with the Robin condition using the shape gradient. With respect to a three-dimensional bar problem with notch that was not solved with the previous method the proposed method obtained smooth convergence.

    In the previous work, the authors presented a hypothesis using numerical simulations with a finite element model of spine that thoracic idiopathic scoliosis is a buckling phenomenon of the fourth mode induced by growth of the thoracic vertebral bodies. In this study, a sensitivity function with respect to the maximization problem of the critical growth of thoracic vertebral bodies to the fourth bucking mode was derived based on the Lagrange multiplier method. Accepting the buckling pypothesis, the numerical result of the sensitivity function denotes that the high parts in sensitivity function indicate significant parts to prevent the occurrence of thoracic idiopathic scoliosis.

    「言葉によるエンジニアリング」とは,製品開発設計時において,その成否はターゲットユーザを確定し,彼らがもつ潜在的な要求(Wants)を見出し,その情報をいかに正確に設計者に伝えるかにあると言う仮説の下に考えられた研究テーマである.Wantsはそもそも明文化されておらず,ターゲットユーザが確認しうる既存の製品を基に,主に言語によって表現されるものである.一方,設計者は基本的に定量的な評価を基に製品作りに臨むため,このギャップを埋める必要がある. 3つの方針のもとに研究を進めている.一つ目が性能とターゲットユーザの評価を同一平面で可視化をして,開発方針を決定する方向性を見出す試みである.製品例としてロボット掃除機を対象として,メキシコ人,日本人へのアンケートを実施した.最終年度ではその結果を受けて,開発方針を決定するための手法を確立していく予定である.2つ目が「言葉のトレードオフ」の課題である.ゴルフグローブのパッケージデザインを対象として6つの感性ワードを対象としてアンケートを行い,満足化トレードオフ法を利用して感性ワード間のトレードオフ関係を見出した.その結果,「かわいい」という感性ワードは他の5つのものとはトレードオフが存在すること,「かっこいい」「手に取りたい」を調べれば,他の3つのワードは相関性を見出すことができることが判明した.今後,3つの感性ワードに絞ってアンケートを行い,数量化理論I類でもとめた近似の性格性の問題,感性ワードが減ることでの被験者の負担の軽減と正確性が上がるかどうかの課題を明確にしていきたい.3つ目が色選定の課題である.数量化理論III類を用いたのちにK-Means法を用いると感性ワードに隣接する情報した得られないところ,重回帰分析を利用して感性ワードをすべて反映できる方法の提案を行った.今後,検証実験を基にその有効性を確認していく予定である.

    Injection-locking of nonlinear oscillators to an external periodic forcing is a fundamental phenomenon which adjusts their frequencies to that of an external forcing. Such injection-locking enables to stabilize the frequency of the oscillator, and it has a long history and produces a large variety of applications. In our research, we develop a method for maximizing the frequency range of an external forcing sustaining the injection-locked mode (i.e., locking range or synchronization band), based on our newely developed theory for self-oscillating MEMS. More precisely, we have enabled a direct simulation of injection-locked MEMS through interacting two reliable softwares of Abaqus and Dymola. Further, inspired by these precise simulations, a shape optimigation theory has been developed for a self-oscillating continuous body including MEMS.
