The aim of this demo is to determine the optimal aspect ratio for a tank subject to the action of a given pressure.

The geometry of the tank is defined and modified by Siemens NX. Von Mises stress value is calculated by means of FEM analysis, carried on by Ansys.[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion shape=”square” color=”white” active_section=”1″][vc_tta_section title=”DESIGN VARIABLES” tab_id=”1553179762281-9cff1c87-79d60e7b-660e461f-a7ca”][vc_column_text]Tank radius [100…220] mm[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”CONSTRAINTS” tab_id=”1553179762300-fff844f2-c11d0e7b-660e461f-a7ca”][vc_column_text]The height of the tank is calculated in order to keep the volume of the tank constant[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”OBJECTIVES” tab_id=”1553180485145-d04b5cb9-574e0e7b-660e461f-a7ca”][vc_column_text]Minimize Von Mises stress[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”OPTIMIZATION ALGORITHM” tab_id=”1553180487891-c76fbf68-56fb0e7b-660e461f-a7ca”][vc_column_text]Differential Evolution[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”RUNS” tab_id=”1562153871915-9ef07eaa-3e47″][vc_column_text]2000 evaluations, with parallel execution on 4 workstations using KIMEME Network.
