Abstract

An integrated optimization strategy based on Kriging model and multi-objective particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm was constructed. As a new surrogate model technology, Kriging model has better fitting precision for nonlinear problem. The Kriging model was adopted to replace computer aided engineering (CAE) simulation as fitness function of multi-objective PSO algorithm, and the computation cost can be reduced greatly. By introducing multi-objective handling mechanism of crowding distance and mutation operator to multi-objective PSO algorithm, the entire Pareto front can be approximated better. It is shown that the multi-objective optimization strategy can get higher solving accuracy and computation efficiency under small sample.
