Abstract

With the rapid development of pure electric vehicles, how to improve the range has become the focus of research. Due to the large shell mass of the battery pack shell (BPE), it is necessary to optimize its structure in turn. In this paper, the BPE model was reconstructed by improving the upper shell material and adding reinforcements following the direction of the leaf vein fibers of the Magnolia Grandiflora. A quasi-Monte Carlo method based on Sobol sequences and a Latin hypercube design with variance sensitivity analysis was used to determine the seven design variables. The 122 data sets were trained and predicted using the basic gradient descent algorithm combined with the conjugate direction method, and the predictions were compared with static mechanical simulations for sharp cornering conditions on bumpy roads. The results showed that the BPE weight reduction ratio was 19.5%, and the maximum stress reduction ratio was 27.49%, and the displacement reduction ratio was 29.29% respectively, which satisfied the material requirements. It had a 20.88% increase in first-order mode frequency, which effectively prevented resonance.
