摘　　要：智能结构集智能材料与传统材料于一体,能够实现结构的主动控制,在航空航天等领域具有巨大的应用潜力.由于其系统复杂且具有多场耦合效应,智能结构的整体式优化设计方法成为结构控制技术研究的关键之一.为了提高压电智能结构的整体性能和变形精度,提出了同时考虑压电驱动器布局(分布位置及角度)和基体结构拓扑构型的协同优化设计新方法.采用多点约束方法 (multi-point constraints,MPC)建立压电驱动器和基体结构的连接,定义一种与测量点目标位移相关的权重函数,以实现结构的精确变形控制.通过协同优化设计,压电驱动器可以获得最优的分布位置及角度,同时基体结构获得最优的拓扑构型,从而提升了压电智能结构系统的整体驱动性能和变形精度.通过进一步分析,研究了精确变形、体分比约束与结构优化构型和整体刚度的关系,以及优化结果中可能存在的传力路径畸变现象.数值算例的设计结果表明,采用协同优化设计方法,能够扩大结构的寻优空间,有效减小变形误差,实现压电智能结构的精确变形控制.Smart structures are those equipped with sensors/actuators made of smart materials,which have the capabilityto control structure movement in such a way that makes the design more ecient.However,due to systematic complexityand multidisciplinary objectives,the optimization design of such structures in accurate shape control becomes very challenging.This paper proposes an integrated layout and topology optimization design method for accurate shape control ofsmart structures with surface bonded piezoelectric actuators.The multi-point constraints(MPC)method is used to simulatethe bonding connections between movable piezoelectric actuators and host supporting structures.A new weightedshape error function based on desired deflections of observation points is defined to fulfill accurate shape control of piezoelectricsmart structure.Through the proposed method,the optimal position and orientation of each piezoelectric actuatoras well as the topology configuration of host supporting structure are founded,which significantly improves the systematicactuating and morphing performance of piezoelectric smart structures.Further studies on the relationships of structuralstiness with shape morphing constraint and volume fraction constraint are carried out,and distortions of load carrying path in optimized designs are illustrated.With several numerical results,the proposed integrated optimization method isproved to be an ecient way to decrease the error between computed and desired surface and achieve the accurate shapecontrol of piezoelectric smart structures.
