Wheel Rim Design Parametrization and Its Effect on Optimization

Abstract

The wheel rims are an essential part of the car. The wheels carry the load of the car and its passengers. To carry this load and prevent loss of life in a possible accident, it is necessary and crucial for the wheel to be strong. Additionally, a wheel rim should also be aesthetically pleasing for customers. First of all, design specifications of the rim model are determined. A user study is then conducted, in which each participants create a detailed wheel rim model from a given conceptual model and parametrizes it using design parameters such as spoke number/shape and hub thickness. In a generative design step, participants then generate 20 distinct models using design parameters. The finite element method (FEM) under stationary car forces is then established to find the stress and displacement distribution. The models are next ranked according to the aesthetic scores (given by a volunteer having mechanical design experience) and stress/displacement values (obtained from the FEM analysis). After such sorting, distinct and aesthetic models were obtained using a genetic algorithm (GA). The participant(s) then select the best model(s) among the new models obtained from GA. Two different wheel rim models obtained during the user study are utilized in a GA-based optimization process. According to the optimization results, parametrization highly affects the aesthetic and mechanical performance of the obtained designs.
