Besides, manufacturing processes cause imperfections and variations on the structure which could be estimated by advanced simulations that result in expensive computation processes. On the other hand, it has been an issue to obtain global optima of the objective function of structures such as CFRP stiffened fuselage panels whose mechanical system responses are generally evaluated by Finite Element calculations.
This paper proposes a global optimization process on an innovative CFRP fuselage panel which simultaneously covers stability criterion and draping simulation of fiber textiles that is considered as a manufacturing effect. Genetic algorithms were chosen as an optimization technique to reach global optima. A parametric FEM model generator was developed under periodic boundary conditions in order to obtain buckling modes and corresponding failure criterions during the parameter variation. The shear angles of the fibers arising due to the draping process were considered as production constraint and represented with the surrogate model by RBF-ANN in the optimization loop. Different infusion strategies are simulated in a final step to find the optimal resin infusion process for the obtained fuselage stiffener.
This method presents an optimization frame that covers the production failures of draping process and its influence on structural design. Furthermore this optimization process can be modified with other undetermined production constraints that are predicted by simulation.},
