Optimization design of composite cap-shape pillar structure based on gaussian process of combined kernel function

Abstract

Abstract To quickly realize the optimal design of the cap-shaped structure, an optimization design method of composite cap-shaped pillar structure based on combined kernel function Gaussian process was proposed. First, the shortcomings of two kernel functions representing different linear characteristics of data in model construction were analyzed, on which a new combined kernel function was constructed. Based on the finite element numerical simulation results, a database with the web thickness, web height, fiber volume, and ultimate bearing capacity of the cap-shaped structure was constructed. Then, a Gaussian process model based on the combined kernel function was established and the model parameters were trained by the maximum likelihood method. Finally, taking the ultimate bearing capacity per unit volume as the optimization objective, the artificial fish swarm algorithm was used to quickly obtain the structure design parameters under the optimal objective function, and the simulation results were compared with the initial design parameters. The results showed that the method proposed in this paper can optimize the structure performance, improve the design efficiency, and meet the engineering design requirements.
