Composite material orientation
Sandwich structure
• [𝐶]−1=[𝑆]
• C = 2U, U = Strain energy
• The strain energy can be found using abaqus software
which indirectly finds compliance
k = lamina
j = region
r = design area = k*j
nm = number of materials orientation
max possibilities = r*nm
Discrete Material Optimization(DMO)
• Here we want to find one distinct material for each design region
from the set of pre-defined candidate materials.
• DMO is a methodology that allows us to transform this discrete
optimization problem into a continuous one.
• Thus making it possible to use deterministic gradient based
algorithms to solve the optimization problem choosing between the
several candidate materials.
