Abstract | Multi-material structures have attracted more and more attention from scholars and engineers, because they usually have good composite performance. Uncertainty factors are ubiquitous in practice, especially for material uncertainties. Multi-material structures contain many materials with different properties, material uncertainties will affect the allocation of material usage, thereby affecting structural performance. Therefore, it is crucial to consider material uncertainties in the design of multi-material structures. This paper detailedly explores the impacts of elastic modulus uncertainty and Poisson's ratio uncertainty on the design of multi-material structures. The topology optimization is to minimize the compliance subjected to a mass constraint, where multiple materials can be freely allocated during the optimization. Floating projection topology optimization is adopted to search for the structural topologies, and robust sensitivity information is derived. For the quantification of material uncertainties, this paper introduces a non-intrusive polynomial chaos expansion (PCE) method to implicitly quantify them, the computational efficiency and accuracy in PCE is compared with the classical Monte Carlo method. Finally, topology optimization examples are provided to demonstrate the effects of elastic modulus uncertainty, Poisson's ratio uncertainty and hybrid uncertainty on the design of multi-material structures. |
