2 Overview Background New developments Multi-level Optimization Multi-objective Optimization Classification Methods 2
3 Integrated Computational Materials Engineering $4m project funded by DOE ( ) with participation of US Automotive (Chrysler, Ford, GM), Steel industries and 6 Universities (material modeling) Goal: Reduce the lead time in applying lightweight 3GAHSS to integrated vehicle manufacturing Material model development, validation and LS-DYNA integration Forming analysis and validation Crash and NVH analysis of vehicle assembly Cost analysis Optimization: Goal: 35% (body) 25% (chassis) weight reduction 3
4 Integrated Computational Materials Engineering LSTC Collaborate with universities/government labs (e.g. PNNL) to integrate 3GAHSS material models Support forming analysis and vehicle crash analysis (consultant) Provide a common ICME framework for integrated design: material identification (and design?) Stamping MDO (crash, NVH) LS-OPT Development work: Interfaces to additional Third Party solvers (Matlab, Excel, Abaqus, LS- OPT) Additional features for multistage (flowchart) interface, e.g. variable transfer between stages Framework for multi-level optimization Parameterization of LS-OPT attributes (analogous to *PARAMETER) GUI enhancements, e.g. multilevel job monitoring 4
5 Multi-level Optimization Variables LS-OPT Stage type Optimized Variables/Responses OUTER Subdivision of problem into levels Nesting the optimization problem Variables and responses are transferred between levels Inner level optimization is done for each outer level sample INNER LS-DYNA Stage type LS-DYNA Stage type 5
6 Multi-level Optimization: Why? Organization. Easier to organize the problem as a collection of subsystems Efficiency. Solution algorithm takes advantage of the subproblem type Can match optimization methods with variable types, e.g. materials (categorical), sizing/shape (continuous). Robustness and accuracy. Smaller sub-problems are typically solved in a relatively low-dimensional space Critical framework for rational decomposition methods: Analytical Target Cascading Computing power. ~ 20,000 node clusters in operation Applications: System Optimization (component sublevels), Product families, Tolerance optimization 6

8 Analytical Target Cascading Allows the individual design tasks to be conducted separately Consistency : Linked variables (which appear in multiple tasks) are solved iteratively Targets are identified first. These are propagated or cascaded to the rest of the system. Incorporated in penalty or Lagrangian formulations responses are determined which are fed back to the system task for the next iteration Formulated as a multilevel optimization problem Suitable for collaborative optimization 15

16 Multi-Objective Optimization Multi-Objective optimization is expensive NSGA-II algorithm in LS-OPT uses thousands of simulations for accurate results To improve efficiency, LS-OPT uses metamodels Uniform global sampling (Space Filling) Iterative solver: Global accuracy is improved at the expense of local accuracy Slows down convergence For single objectives, LS-OPT has adaptive metamodel-based methods (e.g. SRSM) Samples optimal region Benchmarked and widely tested in production environments A good starting point for extension to MOO. Requirement MOO method must be unified with SRSM: it becomes the same method for a single objective 26
17 Design Variable 2 Domain reduction (single objective) Region of Interest (for sampling) 2 3 start optimum RSM (polynomials) Use only points from current iteration NN, RBF, SVR Use all available points Design Space Design Variable 1 27

23 Strategies compared 1. Direct Optimization using NSGA-II algorithm. Tolerance on dominated hypervolume = Good reference solution. 2. Sequential Uniform Global optimization stopping at 30 iterations. Default metamodel strategy in LS-OPT. 3. Pareto Domain Reduction stopping at 30 iterations 33

30 Remarks and Conclusions (MOO) The PDR method has the potential for significantly reducing simulation cost for MOO SRSM and PDR are unified. If the Pareto Front has one point, the method automatically becomes SRSM Population choice not simple, may lead to suboptimal solutions 41
