Outline of Final Research Achievements |
During fabrication process of laminated fibrous composites, asymmetric laminates result in skewed surfaces after curing due to strong anisotropy of each layer, and composites with specific lay-ups and dimensions show bi-stable states. The present study performs a multi-objective optimization for the composite shell with bi-stable shapes. Objective functions are amount of averaged deformation between two stable shapes of shell and critical temperature of surroundings which is the maximum temperature to keep the bi-stable characteristics. These properties indicate a trade-off relation each other and are maximized simultaneously by using an effective multi-objective genetic algorithm method. Shell shapes after curing are predicted by the thermal deformation analysis based on the Rayleigh-Ritz method. Calculated results agree well with those from experiments with respect to shell shapes, and the present multi-objective optimization reveals wide-ranging Pareto optimum solutions.
