Structural optimization of filament wound composite pipes
An optimization procedure is developed for obtaining optimal structural design of filament wound composite pipes with minimum cost utilized in pressurized water and waste-water pipelines. First, the short-term and long-term design constraints dictated by international standards are identified. Then, proper computational tools are developed for predicting the structural properties of the composite pipes based on the design architecture of layers. The developed computational tools are validated by relying on experimental analysis. Then, an integrated design-optimization process is developed to minimize the price as the main objective, taking into account design requirements and manufacturing limitations as the constraints and treating lay-up sequence, fiber volume fraction, winding angle, and the number of total layers as design variables. The developed method is implemented in various case studies, and the results are presented and discussed.
