Abstract :
Finite Element Method (FEM) model was built and model analysis was executed for a thin-wall cylinder dynamometer with ANSYS, the natural frequencies and modal shapes of the dynamometer are obtained. The topological optimization was done with the variable-density method. The utilization rate of materials was improved, and the lower model frequencies were increased.
