Abstract
Lightweight research based on battery pack structural strength can improve the endurance and safety of electric vehicles. Based on the adaptive response surface and multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm, this paper proposes an optimization design method for lightweight of battery pack shell. The thickness of the battery pack shell is the optimization parameter. The stress, strain, and frequency of the battery pack shell under typical working conditions are used as boundary conditions. The response surface model is established according to the criterion of cross terms in adaptive response surface method, and the multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm is used for iterative solution. The optimization results show that the maximum stress of the battery pack is reduced to the appropriate range, the first-order frequency is increased by 41% to reduce resonance, the maximum deformation is reduced from 2.7 to 1.12 mm, and the total mass is reduced by 26.8%. The battery pack optimization design method proposed in this paper can achieve lightweighting while meeting safety performance.
