The thin, flat plate below has an elliptical cutout with dimensions 2a x 2b. The area of the cutout is required to be 20 in2 . The inplane loading is as shown, and you may assume that =1psi.
Assuming the dimensions of the plate are much larger than the largest radius of the elliptical cutout, the tangential stresses at points A and B are given by:
Optimize the shape of the elliptical cutout to find the best values of a and b. Use the following five (5) approaches:
(a) Analytical: Assume that the optimal shape is one in which the tangential stresses at points A and B are equal. Derive the values of a and b by hand. Show all work.
(b) Graphical: Use the following problem statement. This graph must be done by hand. 代写机械工程
Minimize: ݂f=|σA-σB |
Such that: h=area=20
For a and b, use a variable range of (1.0, 6.0). Show all work and create clear graphs. You must show the h function and at least three contours of f on the graph. Denote the
optimal solution point on the graph.
(c) Numerical: Use the following summed objectives problem statement with no constraint.
Minimize: f = [max(oÆ, oB)] + [abs_value(Area — 20)]
Use SHERPA. For a and b, use a variable range of (1.0, 6.0).
(d) Numerical: Use the following pareto optimization problem statement with multiple 代写机械工程
objectives.
Minimize: ݂
f1 = [max(oÆ, oB)]
f2 = [abs_value(Area — 20)]
Use SHERPA. For a and b, use a variable range of (1.0, 6.0).
(e) Numerical: Use a different problem statement (representation) of your choice. In other words, how else can you represent and solve this problem? For a and b, use a variable range (1.0, 6.0).
Results and Discussion: 代写机械工程
(i)For each of the solutions above, briefly describe your problem statement and show all work in your formulation and solution. Include any necessary tables and plots to provide a complete description and assessment of your solutions.
(ii)Create a table to compare the results of the five solutions in terms of the numerical results and the overall effort (manual or computational). Discuss the pros and cons of each approach.
