Abstract
Structural optimization pursues improved performance of structures. Nowadays, structural optimization is applied to the design of huge and complex structures such as an airplane. As the number of the finite elements is increased, the analysis solution becomes more accurate. However, the design cost using the finite element model is significantly increased. The component mode synthesis method that is using the substructure synthesis method is frequently employed in order to keep the accuracy and reduce the cost. A new design method for structural optimization is proposed to reduce the design cost and to consider the dynamic effect of the structure. The proposed method reduces the design cost by applying the equivalent static loads on the design domain. An example of linear dynamic response optimization is solved and the efficiency of the proposed method is demonstrated.
