報告摘要：

In recent years, environmental and economic issues force aircraft  designers to minimize weight and costs to keep air transport competitive and  safe. Topology optimization, a finite element based structural optimization  process, is increasingly used by engineers to support the development of minimum  weight structures. In my talk, topology optimization of aircraft fuselage  section is performed in order to provide a scientific basis for finding a  rational structural layout. The results of topology optimization suggest that  the lattice layout for the barrel is an efficient design with respect to weight  and structural performance. This provides a backing to the specific choice of  the preliminary design concept. Following that, the investigation of the effect  of the window pitch on the conceptual design is performed.

The other basic ingredient of my talk is the Multipoint Approximation  Method (MAM) for engineering design optimization. Its capability to efficiently  solve the medium-scale, mixed continuous-discrete engineering optimization  problems is compared against GA. The potential of this metamodel based  optimization technique will be demonstrated via the benchmark example of the  ten-bar truss structure.
