초록

This paper proposes a solution to the problems of manufacturing cost and processability by applying discrete material and thickness optimization (DMTO) and minimizing the use of high-strength, lightweight materials in the optimization process. A simple infant pop-up seat model was selected as the application target, and the weight reduction effect and variation in strength according to the optimization results were observed. In this study, a simplified finite element model of an infant pop-up seat frame was first constructed. The model was used to perform a static structural analysis to verify the weight and strength of each part. The D-optimal design of the experimental method was then used to observe the influence of each part on the weight and strength. This process was applied using discrete thickness optimization (DTO) (which applies high-strength, lightweight materials and optimizes only the thickness) and DMTO (which considers both the material and thickness). The DTO and DMTO results were compared to verify the design method that determines the major parts and simultaneously considers the material and thickness. Accordingly, in this study, an optimal lightweight design that satisfied the strength standards of the seat frame was derived. Furthermore, discretization parameters were used to minimize the application of high-strength, lightweight materials.
