説明
<jats:p>Automotive body frames, which profoundly affect automotive performance such as crashworthiness, are generally formed using pressed metal sheets, and the assembled cross-sectional shapes govern the frame characteristics. This paper proposes a cross-sectional shape generating method for achieving the cross-sectional properties assigned by design engineers. The cross-sectional shape-generating problem for pressed metal sheets is formulated as a multiobjective optimization problem that involves a marriage of continuous variables, such as shape dimensions, and discrete design variables, such as types of material and their thicknesses. Genetic algorithms are applied to solve the optimization problem.</jats:p>
