Development and Application of Light-Weight Design of the Aluminum Alloy Wheel

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to implement the optimization design for a forging aluminum wheel, the wheel’s structural optimization design software, i.e. DWheel, was developed in this paper. DWheel was programmed based on C# and ANSYS applying the restrained variable-dimension method. The key data interface commands were introduced first. Subsequently, the software was applied on a forging wheel’s structural optimization design. The optimized wheel passed the practical testings successfully.
