Optimization of the microstructure of composite materials taking into account the constraints on their properties

In the paper, an approach to optimizing the microstructure of composite materials under given restrictions on its properties has been put forward. The approach is based on the application of conditional optimization methods. The effective elastic properties were determined using the finite element homogenization procedure. As an example, the fiber-reinforced composite with ball-shaped inclusions was optimized taking into account the limitations on its thermal conductivity and elastic modulus at macro level using artificial intellect methods.
