Multi-Obj ective Optimization Design for Bus Rollover Safety Based on Gradient Strength Pillar

In order to make the strength of the pillar in different locations match with the impacting force, a new gradient strength pillar structure is proposed in this paper. The rollover simulation analysis for gradient pillar shows that the gradient strength pillar structure obviously improves rollover safety of the bus. The paper establishes high precision approximate models of design response by combining optimal latin hypercube experimental design with radial basis function(RBF)approximation techniques, and multi-objective optimization design is performed based on approximate models of design responses by using the multi-objective genetic algorithm(NSGA-Ⅱ). The optimization results show that a reasonable match of strength and wall thickness for the pillar structure, not only can improve bus rollover security greatly, but also can achieve the purpose of bus lightweight design.
