Topological Design of a Mortar Base Plate under Impact Loads

Figure 17

The comparison between the upper and lower limits of the displacement of the base plate before and after the optimization in the x-direction and z-direction in the recoil phase and the counter-recoil phase. (a) The upper and lower limits of the displacement in the X-axis direction during the recoil phase. (b) The upper and lower limits of the displacement in the Z-axis direction during the recoil phase. (c) The upper and lower limits of the displacement in the X-axis direction during the counter-recoil phase. (d) The upper and lower limits of the displacement in the Z-axis direction during the counter-recoil phase.
