摘要
A set of natural design variables is chosen as the design variables defining the shape. Specifically, the design variables are the magnitudes of a set of ficitious loads applied on the structure. The displacements produced by these fictitious loads, or natural shape functions, are added onto the initial mesh to obtain the new shape. Consequently, a linear relationship is established between changes in grid point locations and design variables through a finite element analysis. Plane elasticity problems are solved using the new approach. The quality of the finite element meshes produced and other salient features of the shape optimal design problem are discussed.
