Abstract
Composite materials are widely used in important fields such as aerospace, automobiles, engineering machinery, and architecture. The macroscopic properties of composite materials depend on the micro unit cell form the composite material. To design a composite material with special properties, it is necessary to design the unit cell structure of the composite material. In shape optimization, a crucial piece of information in the optimization process is the sensitivity of the structure's state response to design variables. Therefore, the efficient sensitivity solving methods are crucial for the design of composite cellular structures. With the self-developed numerical simulation software platform SiPESC, the geometric parameterization modeling of the unit cell model is carried out. An improved semi-analytic sensitivity analysis method is used to make the perturbation more accurate through mapping between the geometric surfaces and element nodes, and between element nodes and elements. The sensitivity calculation efficiency becomes higher by using the local element to solve the sensitivity. The verification of typical cases shows that the algorithm in this paper meets the accuracy requirements compared with the global difference method.
