Abstract

In the practical design, it is important to extract the design space information of a complex system in order to optimize the design because the design contains huge amount of design conflicts in general. In this research FEA (finite element analysis) has been successfully implemented and integrated with a statistical approach such as DOE (design of experiments) based RSM (response surface model) to optimize the thermal deformation of an automotive disk brake. The DOE is used for exploring the engineer's design space and for building the RSM in order to facilitate the effective solution of multi-objective optimization problems. The RSM is utilized as an efficient means to rapidly model the trade-off among many conflicting goals existed in the FEA applications. To reduce the computational burden associated with the FEA, the second-order regression models are generated to derive the objective functions and constraints. In this approach, the multiple objective functions and constraints represented by RSM are solved using the sequential quadratic programming to archive the optimal design of disk brake.
