Topološka optimizacija motociklističnega verižnika

Hrovat, Tim (author), Čepon, Gregor (mentor)

V avtomobilistični industriji inženirji težimo k zmanjšanju skupne mase prevoznega sredstva, saj se tako prihrani energija oziroma čas potreben za pospeševanje in ustavljanje vozila, hkrati pa se vozilu izboljšajo tudi krmilne lastnosti. Pomagamo si s topološko optimizacijo; metodo porazdelitve materiala na optimalen način glede na izbrane pogoje. Topološka optimizacija je izvedena na CAD-model motociklističnega verižnika v okolju ANSYS, nato sledi strukturna analiza topološko optimiziranega verižnika. Rezultati pokažejo, da je topološka optimizacija efektivna metoda za zmanjšanje mase izdelka.

• Title: Topology optimization of a motorcycle sprocket

Abstract

In the automotive industry, engineers strive to reduce the overall mass of the vehicle, as this saves energy or the time needed for acceleration and braking, while also improving the vehicle's handling characteristics. Topology optimization is used to assist in solving this problem; a method of distributing material in an optimal way based on selected conditions. Topology optimization is performed on the CAD model of a motorcycle sprocket in the ANSYS environment, followed by a structural analysis of the topologically optimized sprocket. The results show that topology optimization is an effective method for reducing the product's mass.
