The workflow of generative design can be devided into 7 6 steps:
...
A Design always starts with the Geometry Preparation. This step can be done either in a CAD program or directly in MSC Apex Generative Design.
...
Once an optimization is started you are directly transferred to the Post Processing in MSC Apex Generative Design and you can track the progress of your optimization in a live view. The post processing gives information about the stresses, displacements and mass of each iteration. After The intesection has been integrated in the optimization is done and the result satisfies all the predefined goals an Intersectionneeds to be done in order for the part to be firstly ready for manufacturing and secondly used in a Reanalysisprocess and doesn’t need to be carried out manually. Every iteration is now available as an intersected file. For more information regarding the intersection have a look here.
The intersected model is used in the Reanalysis to verify the structure for the specified usage.
