Abstract :
The structure optimization design of bridge crane based on HyperWorks is studied in this paper. The girder structure of the bridge crane can affect the performance of the bridge crane to certain extent. Based on the structure optimization technology of HyperWorks, the topological optimization, shape optimization and size optimization for one 50t bridge crane have been researched. The analysis results show that the weight of the optimized girder of the bridge crane has been significantly reduced than before, and the performance has been improved.
