Data-Driven Optimization of Aperiodic Beams for Broadband Vibration Suppression
摘要
Variable cross-section beams are widely used in flexural wave isolation. Conventional periodic designs can only achieve vibration isolation within specific frequency bands, which limits their functionality.
PurposeAn optimized design model for broadband high-stiffness non-periodic variable-section beams is proposed using machine learning (ML) and genetic algorithms (GA).
MethodsThe model integrates GA and multi-objective GA, combined with ML and the spectral stiffness matrix method (SEM), to enable efficient and precise design of variable-section non-periodic beam structures.
ResultsThe results show that the optimized beams can simultaneously suppress vibration across 500 –4000 Hz and 4000 –9000 Hz. When customizing specific band gaps, considering multi-objective optimization allows the bending stiffness of the aperiodic beam to increase by up to three times.
ConclusionThe proposed model enables efficient design of high-performance vibration isolation beams for engineering applications.
