Abstract

This paper is dedicated to designing the overall structural topology for the lightweight design of an automobile wheel. A simplified two-dimensional finite element analysis (FEA) model for the wheel is established, in which the whole wheel structure is first defined as design domain during topology optimization. A rotationally periodic constraint is introduced to design the wheel into structural topology consisting of rotationally repetitive modules. Further, compliance-based topological design under multiple load cases within single module is carried out. In order to achieve a uniform deflection and stiffness distribution around the circumference of wheel, a weighted compliance under multiple load cases is taken as the objective function. In addition, some factors significantly affecting the structural topology are discussed.
