The optimum structural modification by shape changes

In this study, the optimum structural modification of the L-type structure by shape changes is suggested. The vibration characteristics of L-type structure are analyzed by the sub-structure synthesis method, and the coordinte sensitivities of each sub-structure are calculated and the change quantities of the positions to be modified are suggested by using the coordinate sensitivities. The results obtained are as follows : 1. The sensitivities of the natural frequency could be calculated by the sensitivity analysis. 2. The change quantities of the position to be modified could be suggested by the optimum structural modification method. 3. The developed program could reduce the process and time of computation, since the sensitivity was directly calculated by differential method, not finite difference method.
