Research on Topology Optimization Design of Truss Structure
Shaowei Xu
Abstract:Due to continuous advances in engineering technology and architecture, the use of truss structures is expanding. The design method of ideal truss structure is the main research topic of this paper. The topology optimization method is applied to a bridge design case study. The load and total material utilization ratio of each rod of triangular truss, arch truss and Pratt truss were determined by using structural mechanics solver. By comparing the stress and material consumption of the truss structure, it shows … Show more
