Abstract:
Current dynamic finite element model updating methods are not efficient or restricted to the problem of local optima.To circumvent these, a novel updating method which integrates the meta-model and the genetic algorithm is proposed.Experimental design technique is used to determine the best sampling points for the estimation of polynomial coefficients given the order and the number of independent variables.Finite element analyses are performed to generate the sampling data.Regression analysis is then used to estimate the response surface model to approximate the functional relationship between response features and design parameters on the entire design space.In the fitness evaluation of the genetic algorithm, the response surface model is used to substitute the finite element model to output features with given design parameters for the computation of fitness for the individual.Finally, the global optima that corresponds to the updated design parameter is acquired after several generations of evolution.In the application example, finite element analysis and modal testing are performed on a real chassis model.The finite element model is updated using the proposed method.After updating, root-mean-square error of modal frequencies is smaller than 2%.Furthermore, prediction ability of the updated model is validated using the testing results of the modified structure.The root-mean-square error of the prediction errors is smaller than 2%.
