Reliability-based design optimization scheme of isolation capacity of nonlinear vibration isolators
Abstract Nonlinear vibration isolators (NVIs) are beneficial to isolate or suppress the adverse effects caused by harmful vibration. To a large extent, the isolation capacity of NVIs depends on the selection of design parameters (including structural, geometric, and excitation parameters) of vibration isolators. However, existent uncertainties of these parameters are unavoidable, which influence the reliability of the isolation capacity of NVIs. In this respect, an effective reliability-based design optimization (RBDO) scheme of isolation capacity of NVIs is presented by taking into account the parameter uncertainties of NVIs. In the proposed RBDO scheme, the force transmissibility of nonlinear isolators is regarded as the objective function, and the fundamental frequency, the dynamic displacement response amplitude, and reliability of vibration isolation performance are supplied as the constraints to search the optimal design parameters of NVIs. Considering the influence degree of design parameters uncertainties, the global reliability sensitivity analysis is employed for identifying the critical design parameters in NVIs. A surrogate model of the failure probability function is established by the adaptive learning Kriging approach to decrease the computational cost of the reliability evaluation nested in the RBDO scheme. An advanced meta-heuristic algorithm is executed to search for the design parameters for optimal isolation capacity of NVIs. The proposed scheme provides a potential direction for optimizing the isolation capacity of complicated vibration isolators.
Highlights A reliability-based optimization design scheme of nonlinear isolator is presented. Scheme cover force transmissibility, fundamental frequency, response, reliability. Global reliability sensitivity is executed to identify critical design parameters. Surrogate model of failure probability function is built to reduce computation. Scheme effectively improve isolation performance of nonlinear isolators.
