Smart Light Pole Model and Optimization

Smart light poles are a smart city infrastructure that can provide more efficient urban governance. These structures are designed to integrate a range of electronics and sensors. In addition to lighting, these structures can also be used to monitor mass transit and other infrastructure. This technology is still in its infancy, but it is already transforming the way that cities function.

Smart light poles are designed to carry a range of electronic devices such as cameras, surveillance systems, video recording equipment, security monitoring, and weather stations. These devices can then be integrated with other nearby Internet of Things (IoT) devices. It is important to understand the potential of these structures, as well as their limitations.

The first step in designing a smart light pole is to perform a sensitivity analysis of the design. Using the results of the sensitivity analysis, the mechanical properties can be optimized. However, a proper optimization plan is needed. Although there is a good amount of room for optimization, the optimal solution must meet the design requirements and be lower in cost.

An optimized smart light pole can be a safe, durable and sustainable system. Compared to a conventional street light pole, a smart pole can be more easily adapted to new technologies. Moreover, it can add an aesthetic touch to the space.

To establish a smart light pole model, a combination of geometric simplification and mid-surface extraction techniques was used. A finite element modeling of the pole was then established using HyperMesh software. Afterward, a comprehensive performance analysis was conducted to identify the maximum stresses and displacements.

Based on the results of the comprehensive performance analysis, the maximum stresses and displacements of the smart light pole were found to be within allowable values. At the same time, the total material amount was found to be too surplus.

A multi-objective parameter optimization was proposed in order to reduce the mass of the smart light pole. The joint optimization of sizes and materials tended to minimize the mass curve after 27 iterations. While the design variables are still being utilized in the sensitivity analysis model, a substantial reduction in the overall material costs was observed.

During the construction process, it is also important to consider the effects of the environment on the structure. Seismic performance is another consideration. For example, the GB 50011-2010 Code for Seismic Design of Buildings recommends a characteristic period of 0.2 s. Another concern is electromagnetic interference. If a smart light pole is located in an area with strong electromagnetic interference, it will be susceptible to damage.

The results of a modal analysis of the smart light pole can also be helpful. These modal analysis results will identify any weak or dangerous structures. They will also serve as a reference for a subsequent optimization design.

Finally, the smart light pole can be customized to meet the needs of clients. Unlike a traditional light pole, it can be fitted with a touch panel or LED screen to display convenience information. Moreover, it is possible to connect it with other equipment and devices, including APs, video surveillance, soil and manhole cover monitoring, SOS pagers, and more.
