Especially when GA is used in complex structural optimization problems, if the structural reanalysis technique is not adopted, the more the number of finite element analysis (FEA) is, the more the consuming time is. In the conventional structural optimization the number of FEA can be reduced by the structural reanalysis technique based on the approximation techniques and sensitivity analysis. With these techniques, this paper provides a new approximation model-segment approximation model, adopted for the GA application. This segment approximation model can decrease the number of FEA and increase the convergence rate of GA. So it can apparently decrease the computation time of GA. Two examples demonstrate the availability of the new segment approximation model.展开更多

The eolic blade geometry is approximated by flat finite elements in which the membrane effects are evaluated using the FF （free formulation） finite element and the flexure effects are calculated using DKT （discrete shear triangle） finite element. The pre-processing stage is implemented using OpenGL library, to provide the graphical construction for geometry, mesh orientation, and other requirements of the finite element model. For the processing stage is built a specific dll （dynamic link library） library implemented in C＋＋ language for the FF and DKT elements analysis. The post-processing stage has been built using specific dialogs to present all results in the graphic interface, where the static displacements of the eolic blade model are shown.展开更多

If 5 the exact solution u EQ1^rot, the error estimate of order O（h） about the broken energy norm is obtained for quadrilateral meshes satisfying regularity assumption and bi-section condition. Furthermore, the superconver- gence results of order EQ1^rot are derived for rectangular meshes. Numerical results are presented to confirm the considered theory.展开更多
