| Abstract (English): | Topology optimization provides an effective approach for achieving efficient conceptual designs in mechanical structures. Traditional design practices based on experience and trialand- error methods are time-consuming and lack systematic optimization. In this study, a computer-aided engineering (CAE) framework is employed to perform static and topology optimization analyses of a fixed boom system. The finite-element-based optimization aims to minimize weight while preserving the required structural stiffness under identical loading and boundary conditions. The results reveal critical stress concentrations on the boom pins and arms, guiding the material removal process during optimization. The proposed approach demonstrates that integrating finite element analysis with topology optimization enables the development of lightweight, high-stiffness boom structures suitable for industrial lifting applications.

| Abstract (Estonian): | Topoloogia optimeerimine on tõhus meetod mehaaniliste konstruktsioonide kontseptuaalsete lahenduste optimeerimiseks. Traditsioonilised projekteerimispraktikad, mis põhinevad kogemusel ja katse-eksitusmeetodil, on ajamahukad ega võimalda süsteemset optimeerimist. Käesolevas uuringus kasutatakse raal-tehnoanalüüsi (CAE) raamistikku fikseeritud noolsüsteemi staatika analüüsi ja topoloogia optimeerimiseks. Lõplike elementide meetodil põhineva optimeerimise eesmärk on vähendada konstruktsiooni massi, säilitades samal ajal vajaliku jäikuse samade koormus- ja rajatingimuste korral. Optimeerimisprotsessi tulemusena tekivad kriitilised pingekontsentraatorid noole tappidele ja kinnituskõrvadele, mis mõjutavad materjali eemaldamise protsessi. Pakutud lähenemine näitab, et lõplike elementide analüüsi ja topoloogia optimeerimise integreerimine võimaldab töötada välja kergeid ja suure jäikusega noolkonstruktsioone, mis sobivad tööstuslikeks tõsteseadmete rakendusteks.
