Topology Optimization of Bridge Structures Using Optimality Criteria Method
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 5
Abstract
Topology Optimization is a technique through which optimal distribution of material can be computed for a given structure. Optimality Criteria is one of the gradient based method through which the topology optimization of structures can be done. In this paper topology optimization of bridge structures under plane stress condition has been done through a finite element software ANSYS. For descritization of structures 8 node 82 element has been used. This work provides a mathematical approach for topology optimization of bridge structure under different loading and boundary conditions. The results of 2 point load bridge structure are validated and compared with the results obtained by Method of Moving Asymptotes.
